Challenging? That's the understatement of the year! :)

Likes: Every day is different. You meet a lot of people and hear a lot of great stories. Make your own schedule. Great income opportunity.

Dislikes: People shun you at cocktail parties. You work a lot of nights. Hard to get started.

Opportunities to advance are unlimited, as is income potential.

Love to help provide a safety net for a family if the unthinkable happens and the breadwinner doesn't come home. Every family needs life insurance to protect them We service middle America where 80% of them are severly underinsured. I sleep good at night knowing the good I have done.

The best part of my career is when I have saved my clients at least 50% in what they were originally paying for ONE policy...while giving them so much more protection for them and/or their loved ones.
It is a joy to see the looki on their faces when they see they can get much more protection for half the cost, after I show them the secrets of how NO to be taken advantage of by 'commission-hungry' agents. I do what is right for each client 100% of the time.
I am now recruiting agents across the country and educating them how to save their clients money also.

I am a insurance sales rep. Just started actually, but its not so bad. The pay is great, and there are so many nice people to be met. I encourage them that once they take the first steps needed to save money, the rest falls in place. Im with the Insphere Incurance Agency in Atlanta,GA, and I must say that after all the messed up economy bs, everyone needs a light at the end of their tunnel. And I just happen to be one of the many people in Atlanta that tries hard to guarantee that happens.
