Matt Parks majored in finance at Kent State University in Ohio, and received his Bachelor of Science degree in 2003. He worked as a consultant for a risk management firm until 2009, when he made the transition to Globe Life American Income Division (AIL).

“I was drawn to Globe Life American Income Division when I saw my younger brother excelling at AIL at a very young age,” Matt recalls. What’s been most rewarding about my decision is, after hitting my own financial goals, I’m able to help others do the same. My greatest accomplishment with Globe Life  American Income Division is being recognized multiple times as a top Company leader at our annual Convention,” he states proudly. “But if I could start over with AIL, I would have thought bigger sooner. If you’re considering a sales or leadership position with this great Company, have a great attitude, give one hundred percent effort, be a coachable player, and operate with integrity,” he recommends.

Matt is excited about what his Business offers to both customers and representatives. “Our Business creates amazing opportunities for people to develop themselves and their careers, while removing financial concerns through a dynamic compensation package,” he states. “With our extensive training program, representatives access a proven system that serves and protects the working, middle-class market. Our products help families at one of the worst times in their lives. When everyone else is sending them bills, Globe Life American Income Division is the one Company that sends them a check. Our Company has been recognized consistently for its leadership development for representatives who seek additional training to advance their careers. We also provide college students an opportunity to gain practical business experience. While earning income through part-time and internship programs, they can develop communication, sales, and leadership skills. We also are deeply involved in several philanthropic projects throughout the community and the state of Ohio, which extend to other areas of the United States and beyond,” he adds.

In his free time, Matt reads, works out, and enjoys his family. “I love sports … basketball, football, golf, physical fitness, and spending time with my family. I’m also involved with charities that help children, provide cancer research, etc.,” he says.

Marcus Smith started with the Company back in September 2001. He was an intern and was going to a small business college. Marcus had to do an internship and, at the time, had interviews with three different employers who were business owners. He was recommended to interview with Jim Surace, who owned the Business in Ohio. During that interview, even though he had never heard of Globe Life American Income Division (AIL), he was blown away by Jim’s character and what he had accomplished with AIL.

Marcus was looking for an internship and was really excited about what Globe Life American Income Division was doing with labor unions, credit unions, and associations. Working with blue-collar families and working class Americans was a background that he was both familiar with and knowledgeable of, and had passion to serve. Marcus asked Jim Surace if he had any positions available for interns. Back in 2000 he started as an intern in the Ohio office in North Royalton and loved it. "Luckily for me, I did a decent enough job at the internship to be given a full opportunity to stay at Globe Life American Income Division. So, I’ve been with AIL since I was 19 years old," he says.

"The way I came aboard Globe Life American Income Division was a little unique, but through that interview, I really wanted in. I really wanted what they had," he adds.
