The company began over a half century ago, in 1951, when two men had an idea for starting a business. After getting approved for loans totaling $60,000, they planned to open an insurance agency and conceived the name:
Their venture began when the founding fathers determined their agency would market inexpensive but dependable life insurance protection to Americans who were living in rural areas. Eventually, using their loans, they opened shop in the Oklahoma communities as an insurance agency where they built and guarded their reputation of fairness. As admiration for the integrity of their business dealings grew, their enterprise became a success. In 1964, after 12 years, Globe Life employees began to market life insurance to their customers in 36 states. During the span of 50 years, Globe Life And Accident Insurance Company grew into a position of prominence within the insurance industry. In fact, the company now has 3.3 million policies in force, and over $52 billion of insurance with $2.4 billion in assets.
Globe Life's success can largely be credited to the fact that customers recognize the company name, including many of them who are aware that their parents and grandparents held policies with Globe Life.
Besides having this enviable reputation, the same management team has been employed by Globe Life for almost 20 years; the invaluable collective experience assures that all the associates assume responsibility for providing quality service to customers, even after the initial purchase has been finalized.
