    Bozeman, Montana (PRWEB) January 12, 2012

    WealthVest Marketing, with offices in Bozeman, Montana and San Francisco, California, announces that Kevin Connor has been hired to lead WealthVest’s Fixed Index Annuity Sales Team, focusing on The Hartford’s fixed index annuity products. Kevin Connor comes to WealthVest Marketing from Hartford Life Distributors, where he led the marketing and distribution of The Hartford’s broker-sold retirement and investment products – including annuities, mutual funds, retirement plans, and 529 college savings plans. Kevin was responsible for all distribution functions, including internal and external sales, marketing and sales support, and strategic relationship management.

    Kevin began his career at PLANCO – one of the nations’ oldest, largest and most respected financial product wholesaling firms – in 1981 as a regional marketing director. He was a consistent top producer in several territories, including New York, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. In March of 1988, he was named divisional vice president of the northeastern division, and became PLANCO’s western divisional manager in May of 1991. Kevin was promoted to vice president of financial institution sales in May of 1993.


    In 1998, PLANCO became a part of The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. As a result of his success creating and growing a robust wholesaling team, Kevin became a managing director with The Hartford in 1999 and led the interaction with The Hartford’s product development area and outside investment managers. In 2008, Kevin was named executive vice president of Hartford Life Distributors.

    WealthVest Marketing is thrilled to have Kevin join the team. Wade Dokken, Co-President, says of Kevin, "I have worked with Kevin and/or competed against him for over 24 years, and never in that time have I known someone more capable or more respected in the annuity distribution industry. WealthVest Marketing is thrilled to harness Kevin's relationships and knowledge for our broker-dealer customers." Lincoln Collins, Co-President, adds, "While CEO of Hartford Life Europe, Kevin and his team helped me build the finest wholesaling force in the U.K., just as he had previously built the largest and most respected wholesaling team in the United States. This allowed us to grow to one of the largest unit-linked firms in a brief four years. Kevin's incomparable skills will allow WealthVest to grow from today's largest independent broker-dealer annuity wholesaling force, to the dominant independent force in the United States."
