About Eastport Marketing Group

Eastport's Story...

Eastport was founded by Barry Lundquist in 2000 to fill a growing need: to help insurance distributors improve results. Top insurance executives recognize the importance of overcoming the industry’s distribution challenges (as documented in recent Tillinghast – Towers Perrin and Conning and Company studies), and many are frustrated by poor results, slow growth, and resistance to change. Eastport Marketing Group is dedicated to helping clients improve their performance and results.
