Are You Ready to Take Your Practice To The Next Level?

Our Team Members Come From All Over

Client Centered


Our culture has attracted many experienced advisors from other companies who were seeking a new home to grow their practice. Their wishes for something better came true once they joined the Thoroughbred Advisors family.

We have long stood apart from other firms, for reasons that go far beyond products. As a mission-driven and purposed-filled business, the cause of what we do is as important as the products we sell. See how our combination of culture, innovative sales strategies, and products can fill out your wish list.

Schedule a Meeting

Did you know that Experienced Advisors often have similar reasons for considering independent firms?

Here are a few reasons we regularly encounter when advisors come to us...

  1. Desire to manage YOUR business and take the reins of YOUR future growth.
  2. Frustrated with the lack of payout/noncompetitive compensation and benefits.
  3. Income shrinking as it gets filtered through layers of middle/micro managers and the “company brand”.
  4. Tired of losing a large percentage of your revenue to overpriced office space and overhead.
  5. Freedom of thought and the ability to put your client’s interest first.
  6. Lack of in-house technical and advanced planning support to win large cases.
  7. Unwilling to continue losing big cases that don’t fit “their” business model or capacity.
  8. Wanting a more robust training program to advance your career and get in front of more clients.
  9. An opportunity to partner with less experienced Advisors.
  10. Always dreaming of independence and flexibility in your business and in your life.


If one or more of these resonate with you, we should talk!

The wealth of knowledge and resources provided to agents really shows they care as a company and want everyone to succeed. I feel confident that I can draw on our team's varied experiences and points of view to find the best way to better serve my clients.
