Brokers Alliance is a final expense IMO and FMO for agents and agencies: a distributor that opens a deep shelf of simplified-issue and guaranteed-issue whole life carriers, runs an exclusive lead program, and hands you a quoting tool, all under one contract with no fee to the producer. Final expense should be simple to sell and worth your time, and the pieces below are what make it that way.
Simplified-issue whole life asks a short set of health questions and skips the paramedical exam. Guaranteed-issue whole life asks no health questions and carries a graded death benefit for the first policy years. Because every carrier draws its health knockouts differently, a broad shelf lets you place a client who would be declined or rated at one company at a better fit somewhere else. That shelf, plus the leads and the tools, is what you are really contracting for.
A final expense program, not just a contract
Every piece below comes with the appointment. When you write final expense through Brokers Alliance, this is the shelf you work from.
- Final expense lead programs to keep your pipeline full without buying leads blind.

Why agents choose BA for final expense
The right final expense partner combines competitive commissions, a broad lineup of carriers, no platform fees, and modern technology, while letting you stay independent and keep your book of business. Brokers Alliance is built that way. You get competitive commissions, multiple simplified-issue and guaranteed-issue carriers, automated contracting and onboarding, and an advisor platform at no monthly charge.
The technology is written in house. MyAdvisorGrids puts carrier compensation grids side by side, so you see how comp is set before you write. MyAdvisorCloud is the dashboard and single sign-on shell for the whole suite, with RetirementBrain and LifeBrain alongside it. Your downline is yours and stays yours, hierarchy protection is part of the relationship, and there is no fee to contract. Arizona has named Brokers Alliance a Top Workplace five years straight, 2021 through 2025, and the firm carries 73+ carrier relationships across life, annuities, and final expense.
What the best final expense IMO has to answer
“Best” is not a badge any shop can award itself, ours included. It is a set of answers, in writing, and the shop that gives all seven is the best one for you. Take these to every final expense IMO on your list.
- 1. The grid, before you sign. The full commission grid for the final expense carriers you will write, in writing, before any contract. At Brokers Alliance the grids sit side by side in MyAdvisorGrids, so the comp conversation happens in the open. How street level and overrides actually work: street level commissions and overrides, explained.
- 2. Every cost, named. Contracting fees, platform fees, and what the leads actually cost you. A generous level with fees behind it can net less than a transparent one. Here there is no fee to contract, no platform fee, and the lead program, training, and quoting tool come with the appointment.
- 3. Shelf depth where it counts. Final expense placement lives on underwriting spread: every carrier draws its health knockouts differently, so a deep simplified-issue and guaranteed-issue shelf is what turns a decline at one company into a placement at another. Ask which carriers, in your states, at what levels. Our current lineup is on this page; the carrier directory shows what is open in your state.
- 4. Leads you are not buying blind. Ask how the lead program works, who else gets the same lead, and what happens when you pause. The Brokers Alliance final expense lead program is exclusive and comes with the contract.
- 5. Tools that quote fast. A final expense sale happens at the kitchen table or on the phone, and the shop that makes you quote from PDFs is costing you placements. The FE quoter runs level, graded, and guaranteed issue quotes across the lineup side by side, in seconds.
- 6. A clean exit. Ask for the release policy in writing before you join. Ours: releases are granted on request, no notice period, and the only holds are open fraud or carried debt, which is paid down and the release follows. The whole process, from either side, is in how to get released from your IMO.
- 7. Ownership. Your book is yours, your downline is yours and stays yours, and vesting terms belong on paper before you write your first case.
That is the whole test. The same interview, sitewide and with our answers filled in, is the criteria table for choosing an IMO, FMO, or BGA. If you are moving an existing FE practice, start with switching your IMO.
