Longtime lurker. I figured I would go ahead a make a post as I was going to PM PICnic directly but since I have never posted it wouldn't let me.
I have tried sales before but I didn't have much success but I really had no idea what I was getting into. But it isn't all bad as it did lead to where I am today.
A little about my situation. I have a TX Life & Health and Series 6, 7, 63 and 24. I have spent the past 5 years working compliance for a broker/dealer. I have recently left that posting and now do the same compliance work but for a consulting firm so I am not an employee of any B/D.
I would like to utilize my insurance license by having an online presence and utilizing possibly some local marketing and social media. This will only be on a part time level. Though that could change if there is some success.
I would like to be able to offer everything insurance, annuities, FE, med supp. But I see the main focus being term/mortgage protection type policies unless a trend develops.
So, with that said I am not looking for a ton of support. More for a relationship that gets me access to highly rated and respected insurance companies and allow me to be competitive in the Texas/local market.
I think EZlife may make sense from some of what I read but I want to make sure nothing requires me to be exclusive. I understand they provide support on the actual apps so I am ok with giving to get.
Who are some other places I could look at? Again I am not really seeking marketing, leads, etc. I am basically just looking for someone who can get me onboard with the good, well-known companies. And with that said provide fair contacts given what I am looking for.
I appreciate any honest recommendations and appreciate in advance your time.
Thanks!
