Ironically, his major was Radio/TV and Motion Pictures with a Journalism minor. The business world, however, appealed to him as he quickly became a member of the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT), a CLU, an agency builder, president of two US life insurance companies, and Chief Marketing Officer for a Luxembourg and Bermuda carrier.Ray re-opened The Ohlson Group - a national insurance marketing organization - and counsels agents and producers throughout the country with his over 30 years of "in the trenches" experience and knowledge. Each week he signs off his e-newsletter columns of advice and counsel on a wide range of subjects applicable to the insurance industry and life itself with his trademark phrase, "Until next time . good selling!"The palm tree on the cover is symbolic of Ray's life adventure - it sits near his second home on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Surviving the hurricanes and storms of life, the tree has bent but never broken. As Ray says, "Let this book help you develop the same strength and fortitude . may you bend but never break!"Ray and the love of his life, Ann, reside in Carmel, Indiana, and they adore their three adult children, Nick, Joe, and Kiley.
