Life Saving Early Cancer Detection and Healthy Lifestyle Choices with Lindsay Hanson of John Hancock
Today we had Lindsay Hanson, Chief Marketing Officer, John Hancock & Global Head of Behavioral Insurance (Platinum Vitality Member), on to discuss how an insurance company is helping to change people's LONGEVITY with their Vitality Program. She discusses the features, its benefits, how it is saving clients money, and helping them detect cancer at the earliest stage. And by catching cancer at stage 1 or 2, survivability rates can be as high as 89%.
There are two versions of the program, Vitality GO and Vitality PLUS, to choose from, depending on individual goals and interests. Participants can earn Vitality Points by logging healthy activities through the Vitality app or website, and these points add up to a Vitality Status. The higher the status, the greater the rewards.

- Apple Watch Series 3
- Complimentary Fitbit device
- Wearable device discounts
- HealthyFood benefit
- Cruise rewards
- Half-price hotel stays

With Vitality PLUS, participants can save up to 25% on their life insurance premium. The program also includes a Healthy Engagement rider that determines the total premium based on the insured's achieved status and as part of the program, the Grail Test by Galleri, is provided at NO COST (a $995 value).

Are you a business owner? Have you ever thought about selling your business? How much is it worth? Do you have other shareholders, or family that own part of the business?
Well, in this, the Sixth episode of The Perfect Plan, Dan Zugell, my friend and colleague of 25 plus years goes into the wonder of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). In this qualified retirement plan solution for a business owner, you have a ready and willing buyer, that will buy your business, for a set dollar amount, at a set triggering event. If done correctly, you as the business owner can still run it, control it, and participate in the future growth of your company.
Dan goes into the benefits, tax advantages, and rules of how to design "the perfect" exit strategy for the closely held business owner. Take a few minutes and hear what he has to say, then contact us on how we can help you monetize your largest asset.
