"The fact of helping individuals and businesses alike on a daily basis is very fulfilling. I take pride in this and would very much like to make a career out of it with a sound and solid company."
"I love the philosophy in that our product was one that all people need even though we knew that all cannot or could not afford it. I don't hate the long hours, but I found myself back in the home office very late into the night filling out paperwork even if my last client was 40 miles away... the last stop for the night was the home office."
"Again, the pay is great and room for advancement is outstanding. Unfortunately the hours are not the same as most insurance companies. The companies flexibility in this location for day hours is next to none. You are locked into nearly a year long night shift which isn't conducive if you want to be around your family. They also work every holiday so you will again be away from your family again. This would be a great job for a single individual without any kids who doesn't have any major attachments or obligations during the day."
"While it is very personally rewarding to help clients and provide excellent service to those who have been unhappy in their past experiences with the company, there is no financial reward for doing so. Only paid for selling new policies, not for required policy service to existing clients, and that income is lost by being charged back for any commissions previously earned in client's household and for lapses to policies sold by previous agents."
"I loved the freedom to control my own schedule. The downside is that you are entirely dependent on the familiarity of the name to get yourself in the door. After that its all just read a script and hope for the best."
"I love that you can handle your time and you most of the time are out doors, visiting different kind of people every day.The earning potential, if are working with a good company and have good products, is very good.You learn something new everyday"
