Neilson Marketing Services, the premiere insurance marketing firm for three decades, has enhanced its marketing team with three new hires to continue to deliver best-in-class digital products and services to the industry. Mary Alvarez, Email Strategist; LaTivia Stowe, Social Media Strategist; and Colin Hartman, Sales Account Executive, recently joined Neilson Marketing and sister company ProgramBusiness.com to help execute strategies and tactics to drive agency, MGA, wholesale, and program administration growth.

“This is a time when businesses need insurance professionals more than ever,” said CEO Larry Neilson, “to help clients amid a continued hardening market that’s been further compounded by a pandemic. Communication, education and transparency are necessary to help businesses and individuals navigate today’s challenging and unprecedented times. We have a robust omni-channel approach that leverages digital platforms combined with outbound calling that keeps our customers front and center and delivers results. We have expanded our talented team to meet today’s demand to help the insurance industry effectively communicate with clients, gain new customers and continue to grow profitability.”
