Where the experience sits

Four areas that account for most of the work, and most of what people ask about.

Annuity distribution

Two decades across carrier marketing, brokerage wholesaling and now direct-to-consumer distribution of fixed annuity products.

Digital-first platform building

Comparison tools, live rate data and educational content built so a consumer can evaluate a contract without a sales appointment.

Search engine optimization

Organic acquisition in a category dominated by lead brokers, built on original educational content rather than paid placement.

Advisor education

Years spent explaining where fixed income solutions belong in a portfolio, to advisors and to the clients they serve.

The company

My Annuity Store, Inc. delivers independent annuity education and comparison tools, empowering consumers to make informed retirement planning decisions. Our online annuity platform provides clients the ability to compare annuity rates from 90 top annuity companies.

As President and co-founder of My Annuity Store, my role emphasizes fostering innovation, collaboration, and customer-centric solutions through a digital-first approach. Leveraging over 20 years of experience in the annuity industry, entrepreneurship, and search engine optimization, Jason is focused on creating a platform that simplifies buying an annuity, enabling personalized and accessible retirement strategies.

Why buying an annuity still takes three weeks, and what we changed
