Contact American Income Life Insurance, Agent Stephen Giddens & Ryan Giddens in Houston, Texas

Stephen Giddens was still a teenager when he joined American Income Life Insurance Company (AIL) in 2011. “I started with the Company when I was 19 years old,” he recalls, “with very little work experience … mostly as a server at multiple restaurants while attending high school near Houston. But I knew American Income Life was the right place for me because of its career track. The Company has a culture of providing upward mobility based entirely on results, rather than tenure or ‘who you know.’
“I was personally recruited into AIL by my brother, Ryan, who is also a Business Owner in Houston,” he continues. “Ryan had a high-school friend who was working at the Company and experiencing tremendous success. He invited Ryan in for an interview. After being hired, Ryan did the same for me.”
Is AIL the right place for Stephen? You bet! “My greatest accomplishment with AIL to this point is my contribution to the Steve Greer Agency winning ‘Business of the Year’ in 2015. My role landed me the number one General Agent spot that same year,” he says.
What’s been most rewarding for Stephen since joining AIL? “In the beginning, the biggest reward came from providing excellent service to the working families we protect,” he states. “Later, that feeling was exceeded by watching my team accomplish great things for themselves and their families. If I could start over with AIL, I’d get into management and leadership much faster. I was a career Agent for two years before moving onto the management career track and experienced the highs and lows of every position in the Company. I’m uniquely qualified to be an Business leader because of personal experience.”
Stephen believes deeply in the value of AIL products. “American Income Life products provide benefits to middle income working families, who only want and need coverage for essentials. Our needs analysis makes sure we don’t under or over insure anyone, and instead designs a benefits package to meet their specific needs. An additional way we help families in need is through canned food drives. All our Agents collect nonperishable food from every family we serve,” he says.
“I’m always on the lookout for community organizations I want to be a part of,” Stephen states. “I want our Business to have a positive impact within the community and beyond, and provide needed benefits for the families we serve and career opportunities for individuals. Our Business can provide you an opportunity based on your personality and potential, rather than previous work experience or qualifications. You have the freedom to excel at AIL, even if your resume may not qualify you for a traditional high-opportunity career. If you’re considering a sales or leadership position with American Income Life, take a few days to search within yourself and decide if you are ready to take on a demanding and highly rewarding career,” he emphasizes.
What does Stephen pursue in his free time? “I have two yellow Labs and enjoy spending time outdoors hunting and fishing or just being with friends and family,” he adds.

Before starting his career with American Income Life Insurance Company, Ryan Giddens, or R.G., was a self-employed small business owner in the fitness industry. In 2011 he was personally recruited into the industry. “I was first attracted to the income potential and later to the leadership development aspect of American Income.” said Ryan.

Ryan says, “Seeing people obtain an exciting and prosperous career is one of the most rewarding parts about working with AIL.” By helping others in their career, Ryan progressed in his own career. In less than five years he obtained the Business Owner promotion, which enabled him to start his own Business. Looking back Ryan reminisces, “If I could start all over, I would treat the first two years of my career as seriously as the last two years. I realize now how much AIL’s products help protect policyholders.”

When Ryan’s not working he’s enjoying the company of his family, reading, or spending time outside. He is an avid outdoorsman, and loves hunting, fishing, working out, golfing, and camping. But most importantly, he helps his community. Ryan says, “I’m personally involved in youth outreach programs and local community churches.”

Ryan’s Business strives to help their community by aiding people wanting a new fast-paced, challenging, and rewarding career. To be successful in a sales position with American Income Life you have to become a dedicated student of the business. Ryan says, “Our Company offers a stable environment, phenomenal leadership, and training programs in which people can grow.”
