Life changes, and your clients’ coverage needs can change right along with them.

A new home, growing family, career change, or new financial responsibility can all be a reason to revisit an existing life insurance policy. Regular policy reviews give you the opportunity to make sure your clients’ coverage still aligns with where they are today and where they’re headed.

Start the conversation. TBA is here to help you find the right solutions for your clients.

September is Life Insurance Awareness Month—a great opportunity to reconnect with clients and start conversations about whether their coverage still fits their lives today.

Marriage, a growing family, a new home, career changes, or evolving financial goals can all impact a client’s life insurance needs. Encourage your clients to consider what has changed since their policy was put in place and whether it may be time for a review.

Throughout Life Insurance Awareness Month, we’ll be sharing resources to help you start meaningful conversations and identify opportunities to better serve your clients.

Long-term care planning is about more than preparing for the future—it's about avoiding common mistakes that can have lasting financial and emotional consequences.

From waiting too long to start planning to misunderstanding what care options and coverage are available, proactive conversations can help clients make more informed decisions and protect the people they care about most. As awareness of long-term care needs continues to grow, advisors have an opportunity to provide valuable guidance before a crisis occurs.

At Tennessee Brokerage Agency, we're here to help advisors navigate long-term care planning with access to product expertise, case design support, and solutions tailored to each client's goals.

The insurance landscape is evolving alongside a changing population.

As people live longer and retirement planning becomes more complex, clients are looking for solutions that go beyond traditional protection. Today's conversations are increasingly focused on guaranteed income, long-term care, wealth preservation, and legacy planning—creating new opportunities for advisors to deliver long-term value. These demographic shifts are expected to reshape the future of life insurance and retirement planning.

At Tennessee Brokerage Agency, we help advisors navigate these changing client needs with product expertise, case design support, and access to solutions that help build stronger financial strategies.

A little preparation upfront can make a big difference in the underwriting process.

When submitting a case, having key details like medical history, current medications, to***co use, height and weight, and recent lab results (when available) can help reduce delays and lead to more accurate underwriting expectations.

At Tennessee Brokerage Agency, we work with advisors every step of the way to help make the underwriting process as smooth and efficient as possible.

Many property & casualty, employee benefits, and financial advisors overlook annuities because of outdated misconceptions. In today's strong rate environment, however, annuities can provide valuable opportunities to help protect client assets while expanding your business.

Here are three common myths—and the reality behind them:

Myth: Annuities are too complex and require too much paperwork.
Reality: With the LUMA Annuity Platform, advisors can access real-time quotes, submit applications electronically, and complete required product training in one streamlined platform.

Myth: Clients lose control of their money.
Reality: Today's Fixed Indexed Annuities (FIAs) and MYGAs offer features such as flexible liquidity options, penalty-free withdrawals, and guaranteed income riders while helping protect principal.

Myth: Annuities take too much time to manage.
Reality: Tennessee Brokerage Agency serves as an extension of your team, handling case management, carrier follow-up, and paperwork so you can stay focused on serving your clients.

How TBA + LUMA support your business:
• Custom case design tailored to your clients' goals
• An all-in-one platform for quoting, applications, and product training
