I want to KNOW the ANSWERS to My Questions
These are few of the legitimate questions we have encountered with their corresponding response:
Q1. Based on your website, IMG is an “International Marketing Group, and is one of the few companies of its kind in the industry today - a marketing company”. So basically, you’re marketing/selling these financial services and insurances to us.
Do these companies/partners pays you or do you have a certain agreement with them to endorse them to us?

A. YES. IMG has an agreement with all the companies we are partnered with. Actually, a lot of companies want to partner with IMG as its distribution channel but IMG carefully selects and accredits companies. In much same way, I am sure the companies who partners with us also do their own checking. While our company is marketing financial services, our main mission if to provide financial education to people.
IMG GET COMMISSIONS FROM THESE PRODUCT PROVIDERS. Like any Broker dealer, the commissions are split between the agent that made the sale and the team he/she belongs. This is much the same as of a "traditional insurance companies" that the hierarchy of the organization from the sales agent to the President earns from a sale.
