The TBT team, which is based in Longview and Tyler, Texas, includes financial advisers Jerry Martin, Jon Cromer, Mitzi Bjork, Carl Newman Jr., Curtis Hinshaw and Clint Quinn, as well as four operations support staff members.
TBT was already working with Financial Advociates, an LPL firm that provides services to independent advisers.
