Rodney L. Robinson
Rodney Robinson began his career selling life insurance, believing that this industry would provide him the best opportunity to help the most people. It is with the same passion that Robinson opened New Venture Benefits Group (NVBG). He was able to harness his 30 years of experience as a life and health insurance industry expert and put it to work to build a premiere employee benefits company.
As President of NVBG, Robinson’s commitment to providing superior coverage with outstanding customer service is widely recognized among industry insiders. However, it is his ability to find creative solutions to the most complex industry issues that has propelled his company to have an increasingly diverse client list. His client list includes large clients, such as townships, municipalities and hospital networks as well as smaller corporations as they balance their employee coverage needs with their budgetary restrictions.
