The Economy is Getting Worse!             Go to Top

I don't care what the media says about the economy showing signs of improvement. I am seeing groups dropping benefits left and right.

Prospecting groups right now is the hardest I have ever in countered in my 10 years in the business.

Ancillary products are not even being considered even on a voluntary basis.

I think this depression could last another year maybe two.
I hope I am wrong but if this is the case there will be large exodus of agents leaving the group market.

Only the fittest survive, learn more products, learn more about the products you already know, increase the states you offer them in, and dont sleep.

My issue is i dont just want to survive.

I know a lot of agents are content on making a living but I want to be a hitter and I was on my way back in 07.
