Ted Bustamante Ted Bustamante: Insurance Specialist

Ted's single-minded purpose is to do whatever possible to enhance your opportunity for success. He strives everyday to offer superior, individual service, and to provide the necessary tools to help make the operation of your business as smooth as possible, thus allowing you to dedicate more of your time to the revenue generating aspects of our business…prospecting, recruiting and selling.

Ted Bustamante is the founder of Bustamante Insurance Services, LLC, and began his career in the insurance industry as a sales representative in 1984. During his career, Ted has been a producer, a home office executive, and Chief Marketing Officer of a National Insurance Marketing Organization.

In addition, Ted helped build a very successful Insurance Marketing Organization from scratch and subsequently sold the company to another firm. Through it all, he has maintained his close affiliation with the selling community and felt the need to build a company whose main objective is to help make the agent successful, not the insurance company or the IMO. This desire to build an "agent's firm" led to the creation of Bustamante Insurance Services, LLC.
