I'm currently in my forth month of being a captive agent for Banker's Life and Casualty, selling life and health in the senior market. I decided to give the company a shoot without doing research on my end about Bankers. They have been good to me so far through my short time at the company, but I believe it is because I am producing with little help from my trainers.
I'm going to sum this up pretty fast. I've read what the forums say about Bankers and so far I have to agree with almost everything I have read. (Of course even having not found these forums I have countless concerns about Bankers) I have given a lot of thought to going Independent. I really like the idea, but even after reading a lot of what these forums have to say I'm confused. What are some good companies to start off selling if I am newly indy and how do I go about getting contracted to sell them?
How much of a cash foundation do I need in place to get going as an independent agent? Should I wait and stick around Bankers until I'm ready and have everything in place to go indy or do I need to get out as fast as I can?
I need any help I can get. I feel confident selling the insurance products in the senior market, I just want to do right by my clients and right by the seniors I go out to see.
Thanks, Josh from Indiana
