ETA expands services, changes name
NESQUEHONING — ETA Benefits Group announces a record year of growth since expanding its line of benefits and insurance to encompass the availability of Medicare plans and Medicare advisory services.
“This was a natural benefit expansion for us,” says agency President Joseph Pilla.
“Health care insurance is among our core strengths. We’ve grown considerably over the last year and have added two new professional staff members and promoted a third to better handle Medicare services,” Pilla says.
ETA Benefits Group is also changing its name to ETA Insurance Group, effective immediately.
Pilla says the name change makes sense as the company nears its 20-year anniversary in business. The agency’s commercial insurance services have steadily grown in recent years, making the agency a one-stop shop for all business needs, from benefits to risk management and insurance.
The agency’s growth and strength in the property-casualty market also encompasses personal lines of insurance such as auto, homeowners, and more available through partnerships with several dozen of the nation’s premier insurance companies.
“At one time, we primarily served employer groups throughout the state, but now with a full line of insurance programs for families and individuals too, it makes sense to change our name to more clearly indicate the insurance availability.”
“You’ll be seeing a new sign over our signature Main Street marquee,” says Pilla. “We’re the same people with a new name, still dedicated to providing friendly, reliable service to our neighbors.”
Pilla also announces the appointment of two new staff members and the promotion of a third:
• Sharon Ford, insurance sales specialist. With more than 25 years in the insurance industry, Ford’s primary focus is Medicare sales and service.
• Michelle Antiga, receptionist. In this role, Antiga’s primary focus will be customer service.
• Joann Chickilly, promoted to insurance sales specialist focusing on the senior market for Medicare and personal lines.
ETA Insurance Group is an independent, locally owned, full-service insurance agency and employee benefits consulting firm comprised of dedicated and experienced insurance advisers. The business was formed in 1999.
