Eastbridge Recognizes OneAmerica as a Voluntary Sales Growth Leader 

AVON, CONNECTICUT, USA (June 24, 2010)

Voluntary sales have shown consistent growth for the last ten years. According to Eastbridge’s annual study, the rate of growth in 2009 for the industry was 3.3 percent, and total new voluntary sales were $5.397 billion. The sales growth rate for the last several years has ranged between three and seven percent.  While the growth rates of many companies have contributed to these results each year, Eastbridge Consulting recognizes the companies leading the pack in strong growth.

To make the list for consideration, a company must have exceeded the growth rate of the industry as a whole for each of the last three years and also be leading in 2009 sales growth. “This year we congratulate One America (AUL),” says Gil Lowerre, president of Eastbridge.  “One America has experienced double-digit sales growth in the voluntary market for each of the last three years and the company’s 2009 growth rate was in excess of 50 percent,” adds Lowerre.

All companies participating in Eastbridge’s annual U.S. Worksite Sales Report are eligible to win the Sales Growth Leader recognition.
