John Frankland

President
John Frankland has over 40 years of experience in the group insurance industry. He is a native of Seattle, Washington, and graduated with a BA in Economics from the University of Washington. John began his group insurance career with a large insurance company out of Maine, in their Baltimore/Washington DC office, from 1979 through 1984. In late 1984, John returned to Seattle and joined a well-known Midwestern life insurance company, and helped start Puget Sound Benefit Services. John’s philosophy: “Our approach with our clients is to help explain their risks, listen to their needs and goals, and tailor a plan that fits their budget. Our responsibility does not end at the sale. We continue to provide personal service to our clients, by providing them a dedicated Account Manager that works with them, and their employees, to provide the best experience possible. We value the personal touch and want our clients to know that we are there to help them.”
