Bill Gough is an Allstate Agency Owner since 1984 and President of BGI Marketing Systems, which he formed in 2008. He has helped hundreds of Allstate Agency Owners improve their business results. Bill's Allstate Agency has ranked in the top 1-3% of all Insurance Agency Owners since 1996.
Although successful, Bill realized he spent 90% of his time working on his business, and not having a full balanced life. In 2004 Bill refocused his strategy and invested in a Mastermind Marketing Coaching Club to really focus on his passion, marketing, and to live a more balanced life.
