I was once licensed to sell life insurance about 7 years ago. I ended up working 6 months for a company that left an awful taste in my mouth about the insurance industry. So I went to college, racked up a ton of student loans, and took a different career path into Procurement. I love my job now, but it won’t get me out of debt or support my financial goals; it will only keep me afloat. I still firmly believe in the value of Term—but only Term, regarding life insurance. I understand term and my clients understood it. Helping others to help myself is the ideal situation for me. So, I am considering selling term insurance again as an independent agent, but I have a few constraints and would appreciate your input.
I can only sell weekday afternoons after 3pm Eastern Time (e.g. 3:30 – 7:30pm) and anytime Saturdays, and I’d prefer to sell over the phone. I figure I can get licensed in other states as a non-resident, if that’s what they still call it.
I believe it can be done, but I need someone with current experience to bounce the pro’s and con’s off of; the possible and impossible. With these constraints, would I be able to reasonably produce an extra $2,000 – 4,000/month NET? If not, what is a more attainable income goal for a determined out-of-practice insurance agent? And what should I expect as hurdles? Im soliciting any and all helpful advice. Thank you.
