“Young, visionary leaders like Scott are the future of this industry,” shared Bryan W.

At Integrity, Service is one of our core values. We’ve built our comprehensive insurtech platform around the resources agents and advisors need to better serve the life, health and wealth protection needs of American consumers. It’s an honor for Integrity to come alongside agencies like DeLong Sales Group and support them in reaching their highest potential.”

Scott DeLong began his career in the industry as an individual producer committed to helping Americans feel secure by helping them understand the best products for their needs. In 2015, he established DeLong Sales Group with a foundational system of training and product expertise that positions agents for long-term success.
“My objective has always been to build a lasting agency where we celebrate our wins together. Today is a collective win for our employees, our agents and their clients,” shared Scott DeLong, President of DeLong Sales Group. “Integrity is changing the industry in exciting ways by offering resources an agent needs to be successful, from effective marketing campaigns to innovative technology. With the support Integrity gives to not only our business, but to every agent, we can accomplish our goals much faster. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished at DeLong Sales Group thus far, and I couldn’t be happier about the direction of our future.”
“It’s incredibly exciting to become part of a larger organization that shares the same vision of service and innovation,” explained Frank Buce, Managing Partner at Integrity. “After joining Integrity in 2019, my business tripled in size — and the Integrity partnership became the best decision I ever made for my company. I know the power for growth that DeLong Sales Group has just unlocked, and I expect them to see even greater results. Integrity offers access to a long list of partners we can call on for help and offer our expertise to as well. It’s been gratifying and inspiring to help each other grow by serving more people. Because of Integrity, we’ve also brought in other product lines and revolutionized our lead program. Scott DeLong is a committed, consistent leader who is already experiencing tremendous success, but now with access to everything Integrity partnership has to offer, I look forward to seeing how he can scale his business faster than ever before.”
