Carlton Bryant has worked in the financial services industry for almost 10 years. He earned his general lines of authority (LOA) license for life, accidental, and health insurance when he was 24; he is currently licensed and contracted in Texas, New Mexico, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Missouri, Tennessee, and Michigan. Since 2017, Carlton has acquired additional premium insurance solutions he utilizes to provide a holistic approach for his clients.

Prior to his career in financial services, Carlton spent two years in telecommunications and five years in corporate banking before choosing business ownership. He grew tired of playing the victim role due to lack of knowledge, political, and environment circumstances, and made his move.

From an early age, Carlton knew that you get what you know your worth is. He figured his worth could never be defined by a job, economy, or a boss. His aim became to assist those truly wanting to leverage their own worth through applicable knowledge, and that’s his goal for his clients.

Carlton’s approach is simple. What are you looking for in life? What are your dreams? Your ambitions? He says, “If you are clear with your desires, then I’ll help you take the first step. I’ll help you grow to love the process because the results are so worth it.” Carlton believes this to his core. He chose to join The Marathon Group because the firm matches his outlook and approach.

Carlton starts with client objectives then applies practical solutions that often come with outside-the-box thinking. As he puts it, “Ideas become limitless because we become a partnership.” His focus is directed towards the best interests of the client only because he believes that is the best way to ensure a lasting relationship, and desired results.

“I enjoy helping my clients know about and understand finances. Knowing a few principles isn’t enough. We want to enhance the mindset. The most fulfilling thing to me is when a client has an awakening and can’t stop asking all of the right questions,” he says.

Carlton’s overall mission is for people to believe in themselves more than the lies that they buy into subconsciously. Lies and distractions keep us far from the truth. At TMG, we focus on positive habit-stacking and self discipline.

Originally from Indianapolis, Carlton moved to Dallas in 2005. He has spent majority of his life in Texas and currently resides in Carrollton, located in North Texas. Carlton and his amazing fiancé (soon to be wife) are raising a beautiful girl; their Pomeranian is also a big part of the family. There is nothing Carlton loves more than quality family time, high-level conversations, art, health, and physical fitness.
