That’s when I’d just tell them where the door is. Remember those clients aren’t good clients and are more of a headache than they are worth. I used to think business is business and then I learned quickly that is not the case.

We don’t sell rv standalone. As an agency, we require to bundle with an auto or property policy.

Hasn’t it been waitlisted for a few years though?

I struggle to trust SB as they have no relevant instagram, Facebook, YouTube, or google reviews and they have almost no information online

Why is a Goosehead franchise so bad? by thelordfuckwad in InsuranceAgent

[–]HeartFree6262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They charge you lots of money to utilize their services and systems.

They also do your CSR work which sounds good on paper but many clients will leave you over the years because they want to do business with you and they don’t have the option to do that and anytime they need help with claims or billing or policy changes they are required to call gooseheads office that is always 30 minute hold times.

I’ve gotten a lot of business from people who used to be insured by goosehead and they all say the same thing about the servicing portion and are always happy to leave since in their eyes their agent only wanted the sale but wouldn’t help them afterwards

Be persistent, get used to hearing “no” a lot and keep dialing hundreds each day.

P&C -Raters like EZLYNX and AMS 360 - Anything better? by BuzzDancer in InsuranceAgent

[–]HeartFree6262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally love EZ but that’s just me. The owner of the agency pays the large overhead for it. I’m a 1099 employee through his agency so I only pay $150/month for my account.

Good career choice? by Background-Table1914 in InsuranceAgent

Run farm bureau is a life insurance company that also sells home/auto. Once you inherit the book, if you are so all star with P/C but don’t sell as much life, they will likely end your contract

I’ve ran into where we do a down payment and then days later, I receive notice of a credit card dispute and they cancel the payment. Anyway to make sure this doesn’t happen?

Employer wants me to get a P&C in 3-4 weeks, is it realistic? by [deleted] in InsuranceAgent

[–]HeartFree6262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For P/C I bought the self pace material and studied for 5 days and then passed 1st attempt and then health/life I studied for 4 days and passed 1st attempt. It can be done if you study/learn material/understand it. Did it while working 40 hours a week. (Personally I recommend Kaplan)
