Who is CG Financial Group?

“Providing Independent financial professionals with vast technology and support resources while also providing high payout levels is what we do.  Between resources and commission levels, it does not have to be a zero-sum game.”

Charlie Gipple, CLU, ChFC

Founder and CEO, CG Financial Group and The Retirement Academy

Independent But Not Alone…

Vast Resources But Small Company Feel

Our History.

CG Financial Group was founded in 2018 and is one of the fastest growing IMOs in the country.  But regardless of how large we get, we will commit to always having a “small company” feel that is hard to come by in an industry of consolidating “Mega-IMOs”.

We pride ourselves on being able to provide support that is unmatched in the industry while also providing payout levels that are unmatched in the industry. 

Over the last 25 years, our founder – Charlie Gipple – has worked as a coach for hundreds of agents, registered reps, broker dealers, CPAs, advisors and marketing organizations and has built these relationships that he cherishes.  We now work with these financial professionals as their IMO to elevate their businesses to new heights.

Charlie has not only spoken at large agent events as a keynote speaker – he has also conducted hundreds of client seminars over the years and he knows what works and what does not!  Thus, CGFG’s mission is to transfer this knowledge to you, the agent/advisor.

One of the many attributes our financial professionals like about us is: unlike many other IMO’s, we personally produce ourselves.  This means that the product strategies, tax strategies and ideas that we communicate to you are based on proven real-life experiences with the end consumer.   In essence, we eat what we cook!!  Many times, what looks good on paper does not work when applied.  We actually apply our ideas; and are quite good at it!  We then transfer this knowledge to you through ongoing training and also through The Agent Portal.

When we combine this experience with the end consumer along with 25 years of coaching MDRT-level financial professionals on a national scale, there is a powerful combination of knowledge we can transfer to you, the financial professional!  

Being a GA/IMO requires so much more than providing product specs!  It requires technology, training, case management, support infrastructure, and many other things.  We have this!!!
