Integrity Marketing has acquired Trusted Senior Specialists — a Houston-based Medicare plan distributor that has relationships with 5,000 agents.
The agents serve 82,000 customers.
Bryan Adams, Integrity Marketing's CEO, said his company was impressed by Trusted Senior Specialists' customer relationships.
Integrity Marketing is a Dallas-based insurance and financial services distributor that has used private equity cash to make dozens of acquisitions. It now manages a network of 420,000 agents and advisors. The producers in the network serve 10 million clients.
Michael and Melinda Wilhelm founded Trusted Senior Specialists in 2005. Integrity Marketing says it will make them managing partners in its own organization.
Integrity Marketing has also announced the acquisition of J. Gavin Financial Services, a 3-year-old life and annuity distributor with offices in Kennewick, Washington. The seller, John Gavin, will become an Integrity Marketing managing partner.
