I met with a State Farm Recruiter this past week.
State Farm is now offering $11,000 a month for expenses during the first 3 years. You still receive the signing bonuses of $18,000 in year one, $12,000 in year two, commissions, $25,000 credit, and a book of business.
You often see organizations forgetting the sales force is the bloodline of the organization. In life we all take “our bloodlines” for granted: our family, friends, and health. Then something tragic happens we go back internalize the problem and reproach the situation.
It is apparent State Farm is focusing its attention on the sales force. You can also see a shift in the way they are advertising. State Farm has always been a heavy advertiser, however signing LeBron James sends a different message. They are trying to target the internet generation. “Call my agent” and his care free attitudes sends a powerful message to the young consumer.
I know some employees inside State Farm's corporate office; they said that State Farm is restructuring contracts in order to help it’s agents to succeed. Is the new contract sufficient to run a successful agency or is one still doomed for failure?
Please do not say that “hard work takes care of everything”. I know success comes from hard work, external factors, and being a part of a great system.
Thank you in advance for a response
