Lance Morrow
(800) 650-5756

Lance Morrow entered the insurance industry in 1984 selling group and individual health insurance. In 1990 he transitioned into annuities and estate planning where he pioneered the seminar as his prime marketing tool. He went on to become the General Manager of two agencies responsible for recruiting and training hundreds of agents before establishing his own annuity/estate planning agency.

He developed a unique expertise in the use of annuities for Long Term Care Planning and designed what would become known as Medicaid Friendly annuities. As word got out of this specialized area of planning, agents from all over the country sought him out for help; soon his retail agency developed into a niche wholesale marketing organization. His company; Landmark Financial Group, LLC; became its primary carrier’s number one marketing group eight years in a row with over four thousand contracted agents. Many of those agents, under his tutelage became millionaires. In 2013 he became associated with The AIP Group as a Regional Wholesaler allowing him to bring agents a full array of top products and effective marketing programs.

Lance lives in the foothills of El Dorado Hills just east of Sacramento, CA and can be contacted at (800) 650-5756. Lance will also meet one-on-one with contracted agents in his region as scheduling allows.
