Ryan Saridakis
The Founder | Legacy Maker
November 15, 1983 – August 10, 2022
Ryan Saridakis was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. He was a proud Ohioan and during his various endeavors he found himself in the Life Insurance Industry for over 10 years. Ryan saw a need for a Community that brought Life Insurance agents together into an environment where they could access unbiased information and opinions as well as build friendships and connections with like-minded individuals. On March 13, 2018 the Tips Tricks and Closers Facebook community was founded, now to be known as TTC. At the time Facebook groups were still relatively new to most users and TTC was the first of it’s kind in the industry. TTC was built on a straightforward belief system: Provide value, bring transparency to the industry, and help agents make more money.
Ryan identified there was a need in the community for a consistent and reliable lead flow system. Out of a desire to meet agents needs, Ryan began to generate leads and became the first to publicly provide a consistent, pay per lead system using digital Facebook leads for agents. Many of our loyal clients may remember the Venmo and cash app days…. It was not long after that, Ryan realized this was more than just a way to hook up his community but rather, more a business that called for a team to ensure the clients trusting him with their money have a good experience. He took this seriously and made it his priority to build a solid team that would provide reliable, consistent service and support to the TTC community and its clients. Quickly the TTC team grew and since then has accomplished many things. He was most proud of the year TTC accomplished its first million dollars in sales. Not just because of the money, but more so because it happened within the first 19 months. It was inspiring to him and fueled him so he shared it with everyone, not to boast, but rather to inspire the community and his followers. He truly believed if you focus on your strengths you can find out what you are indeed capable of.
Ryan lived everyday to be a legacy Maker. From a very early age he learned that life is fragile and so he had a big appreciation for life He believed in transparency, in trying even if it means failing, doing “it” without waiting for the perfect time. Ryan wanted his life and accomplishments to be a testimony to God’s grace and an encouragement to you to start working on your dreams with whatever you have, right now. You will look back and be proud of how it began.
On August 10, 2022 Ryan passed away with his fiancé, Andrea, at his side due to undetected terminal lung cancer. He leaves behind a great legacy for his children to look up to, for his family to be proud of, and for his friends, his community and his followers to:
Be inspired to do it now.
Ryan believed that whatever your dream may be, it was known and chosen by God and the time to work towards that dream is now. He built TTC as a strong and healthy company that continues to grow and expand with his vision as he intended; led by his fiancé, Andrea Vargas and their loyal leaders and team-members.
The culture of TTC is embedded with Ryan’s values, expectations, and most importantly his vision. Together we will keep his legacy alive by carrying out his plans and vision for the community and the industry. May his lessons and principles live in our hearts forever.
