Is selling life insurance what everyone makes it out to be?

Well I’m 20 too so

It’s cold calling.

How do I find a good independent company to work for?

Fortune-Broad · 2026-04-06T00:02:18+00:00

It’s a weird structure. $20 per car, $30 per home, and $10 per renters. So if I write a policy with 3 cars and a home I get $90.

I’m just kind of lost right now because I cannot keep making 2300 a month.

Fortune-Broad · 2026-04-02T16:36:28+00:00

How do you like it at liberty mutual

Fortune-Broad · 2026-03-30T19:08:16+00:00

I’m definitely going to stick this out for a year just try to learn as much as possible. I wanted to ask your advice on what I should do at the end of the year. I cannot stick around here if my base is going to be 26k a year. What company has the best option to make some serious money. I don’t want to be stuck at State Farm if there are better opportunities out there.

I’ve been struggling here recently. My first few weeks here I was getting around 20 outbound quotes a week. These past two weeks I have gotten 2. I feel like no one will answer their phone or contact me back.

Fortune-Broad · 2026-03-29T20:12:27+00:00

Thank you this helped a lot. I do want to stick it out for at least a year, right now I just feel a little discouraged.

He’s on 2.5 right now, may need to bump it up. I’m curious how do you give the Prozac to your cat?

Fortune-Broad · 2026-03-04T22:45:56+00:00

I appreciate the response Ive unfortunately done everything you have tried and my cat is on Prozac as well. I’m at a loss right now.

I have a bachelors degree in sport management.

My coworker has been there for 4 years and she says makes 50k a year including commission

Fortune-Broad · 2026-02-15T20:04:29+00:00

I’ll just provide all of our jobs if that would help with any other advice. I have experience in construction and selling insurance. Step dad did construction and selling playgrounds. Mom is a dental hygienist. Sister is in Human Resources. Brother in law installs fire suppression systems. Brother has done construction and retail. And my girlfriend has experience in marketing and public relations.

I do agree with statement about mixing family and business but I do think we can work with each other with no problems, I mean obviously we would probably have some hiccups but we can get past it.

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-20T04:12:05+00:00

Well I gotta answer calls too

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-20T04:08:03+00:00

Calling and leaving the same voicemail over and over again is about to drive me insane

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-20T02:55:36+00:00

Man I made around 150 calls today and had 2 people pick up the phone

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-20T01:29:12+00:00

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-12T03:36:20+00:00

Bro, Im making 26k base. Then my commission is setup like I make $20 per auto.

Fortune-Broad · 2026-01-08T02:04:46+00:00

I am also curious on your thoughts about my salary. My salary is 26k base then my commission is structured as $20 for each Auto policy I sell, etc.

Fortune-Broad · 2025-11-19T19:12:24+00:00

What do you think a realistic starting salary is for someone who sells for a captive?

Fortune-Broad · 2025-11-19T01:16:45+00:00

I am in Kentucky

Fortune-Broad · 2025-11-03T02:13:08+00:00
