A New Year Brings New Beginnings

As a coach to financial professionals, I’m naturally curious what makes people tick. What motivates them? For some, it’s money. For others, it’s having the freedom in their business to not have to work as hard (at least not for the whole year)! For others, it’s leaving a legacy.

Like any good coach, I have a coach, too. During a recent call, she asked me a question that really got me thinking:

“When you look back 1-year from now,
what will be intentionally different about your business?”

How will your 2016 be different than 2015? Are you going to ditch the things that simply don’t work? Will you shift the focus of your practice on a niche market so you are exceptional at serving your clients? How many processes (or bad habits!) need to change in order to allow that intentional change to be possible?

Whether you’ve already been serving federal employees for a while, or you’re thinking about getting started…

“What’s holding you back from stepping up your game?”

Find 30 minutes to talk with me to see if you’re a good fit for the federal market, and how ProFeds can speed up your success.  Cheers to a Prosperous New Year!

2016 FEGLI Open Season Announced

The Office of Personnel Management has announced a rare Open Season for the Federal Employees Group Life Insurance Program.
 
OPM will hold a FEGLI Open Season from September 1, 2016 through September 30, 2016. During this time, federal employees who are eligible can elect or increase their FEGLI life insurance coverage.  Changes made during the open season will not become effective until October 1, 2017 (a full year after the Open Season change is made).

 

NOTE: The FEGLI Open Season is only in effect for active employees, and is NOT open to retirees.

 

Open seasons are extremely rare and should be taken advantage of especially by employees who are uninsurable.

A New Year is Upon Us

Dear ProFeds Members,

Welcome to 2017!  I’m not exactly sure where last year went, but the new year is upon us in full force now!

We have been working hard at ProFeds to bring you a lot of new tools and resources to make it easy to work with feds.

I am very pleased to begin introducing our newest team members who will be supporting you in your efforts with federal employees.  Stay tuned.

As you look forward to a new year, ask yourself, “What will be intentionally different about my business exactly one year from now?”  The answer to that question allows you to set targeted goals and set your priorities.

 

Cheers to a New Year!

Sincerely,
Chris
