IAM2023 – Owner Focuses on Helping People Turning 65 or Getting Started on Medicare
Podcast Interview with Garrett Ball
In this episode, we have Garrett Ball, the owner of Secure Medicare Solutions. Where he shares his journey from working in sports management to starting a national independent Medicare insurance agency.
Ball has dedicated his venture to assisting people in navigating the complexities of the Medicare process, particularly those about to turn 65.
He differentiates his agency, stating its focus is on comprehensive, no-pressure information dissemination to clients, making it client-oriented, as opposed to being sales-focused.
He also shares valuable insights into his successful strategies in the business, such as focusing on the most profitable client group, leveraging the gig economy hit for various tasks, and the benefits and challenges of being a CEO.
- Background: Garrett Ball is the owner of Secure Medicare Solutions, a national, independent Medicare insurance agency. His company also manages 65Medicare.org, an online information-based resource for people turning 65 or starting out on Medicare.
- Secure Medicare Solutions & 65Medicare.org: This service offers unbiased information for those transitioning into Medicare. These resources fill an important gap given the complexity of Medicare and the numerous options available, making it difficult for people to make informed decisions.
- CEO Hack: Garrett recommends the book “The Pumpkin Plan” by Mike Michalowicz, which provides strategies for growing a remarkable business in any field.
- CEO Nugget: He suggests taking advantage of the gig economy by using platforms like UpWork to hire freelancers for specific tasks or projects.

We, ideally, start talking to somebody, three, four or five months before they turn 65 and are eligible for Medicare.
