About Ryan McCarty

President & Founding Partner As a founding partner of Megastar Advisors, I lead a dynamic and innovative Insurance Marketing Organization (IMO) that empowers financial advisors with cutting-edge business model platforms. Our mission is to provide advisors with a competitive edge in the industry while facilitating connections between consumers and quality financial professionals. In my role, I manage the operations of Megastar and actively develop new ventures that align with our goal of helping advisors grow their businesses. I firmly believe that controlling the client experience is crucial; when advisors are trusted by consumers, the quality of appointments and leads improves, reducing reliance on third-party vendors. Under my leadership, Megastar has expanded to encompass over seven companies, including our Virtual Federal Appointment Platform, various publication initiatives, workshop generation, state retirement programs, and a FINRA designation service. My passion for the insurance industry is deeply rooted in my family legacy. Over 60 years ago, my grandfather, Roger McCarty, founded Brokers International, laying the foundation for our family\'s commitment to this field. As a proud third-generation professional, I carry forward his core values: honoring my commitments and cultivating enduring relationships that foster mutual success. At Megastar Advisors, we are not just building a business; we are carrying on a legacy of integrity, innovation, and support for financial professionals and their clients. Join us on this journey to reshape the future of financial advising, empowering advisors and consumers alike to achieve lasting success.
