Alliance Group Celebrates Eighth Annual Living Benefits Awareness Month This January

Living Benefits Awareness Month highlights the importance of owning the 'new kind' of life insurance that individuals can use while they’re still alive

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., Dec. 27, 2024 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Alliance Group is proud to announce the eighth annual Living Benefits Awareness Month (LBAM), kicking off this January with the theme, Get the Most Out of Life. The month-long campaign aims to educate consumers about the transformative value of Living Benefits life insurance, which ensures policyholders get more value from their life insurance premiums by offering powerful, free features that traditional policies lack.

Living Benefits Awareness Month highlights the importance of owning the “new kind” of life insurance that individuals can use while they’re still alive. This cutting-edge approach to life insurance works like traditional coverage, providing financial security for loved ones in the event of the policyholder’s death, but it also allows policyholders to accelerate their death benefits if they face serious illness or injury. With coverage for conditions like cancer, heart attack, stroke, and more, Living Benefits provide policyholders with critical access to funds during some of life’s most challenging moments.

“Too many Americans are still unaware of what Living Benefits life insurance can do for them and their families,” said Lee Duncan, President and CEO of Alliance Group. “Living Benefits Awareness Month is about showing people how they can protect their loved ones while also giving themselves the financial flexibility to face serious health challenges head-on. It’s life insurance that’s there for you, whether you live or die.”

This year’s theme, Get the Most Out of Life, emphasizes the need for individuals to rethink their life insurance strategies. Many consumers are unknowingly paying premiums on outdated policies that only offer protection in case of death, leaving them vulnerable to financial strain if faced with critical health events. The campaign urges Americans to take action by reviewing their current policies and exploring options that include Living Benefits to ensure they’re maximizing the value of their insurance.

Samuel Howe, Chief Marketing Officer at Alliance Group, commented, “Living Benefits are a game-changer. We’ve seen firsthand how these policies can transform lives by providing much-needed financial relief during times of serious illness or injury. This year’s LBAM theme is a reminder that life insurance isn’t just about dying—it’s about living life to its fullest and having peace of mind.”

The campaign will feature educational videos, testimonials, and digital resources to empower consumers with knowledge about Living Benefits. These resources aim to make life insurance accessible and relatable, showing real-life examples of how Living Benefits have made a difference for families when they needed it most.

As the leader in the Living Benefits marketplace, Alliance Group continues its mission to revolutionize the life insurance industry. By combining education with engaging content, the company hopes to inspire individuals to take control of their financial futures and ensure they’re truly getting the most out of life.

Alliance Group Launches Living Benefits Awareness Month 2023 with Theme: GoFundYourself

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. /ScoopCloud/ -- Alliance Group launched their sixth annual Living Benefits Awareness Month, or LBAM, to be observed throughout the month of January 2023. The industry-wide campaign, which takes place each January, aims to educate consumers on the importance of owning Living Benefits life insurance and the role it plays in protecting families' financial security.

Living Benefits are features built into life insurance policies (term and permanent) that allow the policyholder access to their death benefit while they're still alive if they get sick or injured. Cancer, heart attack, stroke, major organ transplant, blindness, paralysis, and chronic illness are some of the triggering events that would allow for acceleration of the policy's death benefit.

"Getting sick no longer means certain death," says Samuel Howe, CMO of Alliance Group. "People are surviving longer, which is great news, but survival requires treatment, and treatment requires money. Having emergency access to your life insurance policy's death benefit while you're still alive is a hugely valuable option to have."

He adds, "More people should know about that option. That's why we created Living Benefits Awareness Month six years ago, and we're so excited about building on that success in 2023."

2023 LBAM Theme: GoFundYourself

Each January, Living Benefits Awareness Month is punctuated with a new theme, and this year's theme is "GoFundYourself."

"To illustrate the importance of owning Living Benefits, we are looking to raise awareness about the dangers of relying on GoFundMe as a safety net if something goes sideways with your health," said Howe. "It's wonderful that GoFundMe empowers us to help those in need, but the statistics show that it's not a reliable backup plan.

"Only 12% of GoFundMe campaigns started reach their funding goals. Actually, a larger portion - 16% - fail to get a single donation. This year, we're spreading the message that consumers should plan ahead and get a Living Benefits plan in place that will negate the need to rely on charity in the event of an unexpected illness."

According to Howe, consumers can get a better idea of what LBAM is all about by visiting the website geared towards educating the general public on Living Benefits.

Alliance Group Expands Video Marketing Department with Hire of Assistant D/E

ATLANTA, Ga. /ScoopCloud/ -- Alliance Group, an Atlanta-based insurance marketing organization, announced the hire of Josh Thompson as Assistant Director / Assistant Editor. The move comes as part of a recent series of personnel moves to reflect the company's growing needs as they continue to expand.

"Our agents and partners' needs for quality video marketing content has been steadily increasing over the years, and bringing in additional help to get content shot, edited, and into the hands of our producers was a move we needed to make," said Alliance Group CMO Samuel Howe. "Josh was hand-selected by Travis Grenier, who has built the Video Marketing department here, and he's going to help us keep pace with our partners' growing appetites for quality video content to market themselves and the solutions they provide to their clients."

Thompson has a background in theater production and has owned and operated his own video production company for the past ten years. He has freelanced with Alliance Group on individual projects in the past, and his talent and rapport with the team led to Grenier offering him a full-time position.

"Josh's talents are obvious, and he has plugged right into the team," said Grenier, Alliance Group's Video Marketing Director. "Having him on board has allowed us to massively ramp up our output for video content. Since he's come on, we've seen a huge influx of our agents visiting Stratton Studios to shoot individualized content.
