Finding Good Companies As An Independent             Go to Top

If you start as an independent, what is the first thing that you do to find companies that provide insurance that you want to work with ?

What do they provide to you to educate you on their products ?

Do they provide software tools that you can use to quote your prospects ?

What type of paperwork do you typically have to sign with them ?

Hungry for knowledge !

There are a lot of things to look for when searching for a company. I would suggest looking for a company that provides a solid website that has all the forms and everything you need on it, as well as informational tools. I would look for a company that is willing to help train you on the products and in the field. Offers a lead system but does not force you to use them, offers competitive commission structure, etc.
