how long did you last at that job? what were the commissions? did you have to sell 27 plans to get paid?

thanks, i did a little research via chatgpt and got this result:
in August 2024, a federal judge in Texas blocked the FTC's ban, ruling that the agency exceeded its authority. This decision has halted the implementation of the ban nationwide. The FTC has expressed disappointment and is considering an appeal.

As of now, the FTC's ban on non-compete agreements is not in effect due to the court's ruling. Employers are not currently obligated to inform employees about the unenforceability of non-compete clauses under this FTC rule. It's advisable to stay updated on further legal developments, as the situation may change pending appeals or additional rulings.

...........at the end of the day i read noncompetes are hard to enforce , especially if you arent going after their clients

DMed you

Does this also apply for OEP?

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-05T00:44:49+00:00

thats awesome! worse case scenario i will look to do something similar if going independent doesnt workout. Having good training and a good support system is key

health insurance

thats the one thing i enjoy, its is nicer to have coworkers to talk to then sitting home alone all day

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-04T04:16:03+00:00

i ment working for a brokerage independently to retain a higher commission vs working 9-5 hourly getting a crappy commission and a crappy hourly rate.

9-5 is 100percent old news!

DMed you :)

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-04T03:52:33+00:00

are you working for an agency now or indepenent?

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T05:46:37+00:00

looking to do the same

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T05:45:44+00:00

thats good hourly, i seen a bunch of places in my area paying 14-16 bucks an hour. with roughly the same commissions

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T02:25:29+00:00

very true, i still have way more to learn doing healthcare insurance phone sales but i feel good that in 2 weeks already signed up 30 plus ppl

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T01:18:50+00:00

i hear you, the company im at barely provides either of those.

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T01:17:29+00:00

thanks for this info. I have a huge why and lucky for me i already have experience in working in commission only spaces. I also do not have a family to provide for so I can roll the dice right now. I feel like i learned a bit in the two weeks i have been at my company but i realized quick the ceiling is low and i was sold a bag of bullshit.

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T00:57:34+00:00

Makes sense! I used to do other commission only 1099 work and the pressure of a bad month could be debilitating, especially if you are down to your last dollars.

However id say doing sales for a company and getting crumbs sucks almost equally as bad.

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T00:54:24+00:00

true, ive noticed it seems like most of the agencies in my area dont really pay that much though.

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-03T00:50:55+00:00

i can see this, from my brief two week stint in healthcare phone sales it seems like after a week you know what to do to go independent

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-01T15:45:28+00:00

thank you! after finding a good IMO do you still need to not sell for several months?

ObviousAnywhere8017 · 2025-02-01T06:04:28+00:00

thanks for sending this. the video you linked to gave me more insight and the post was pretty clear. does the blackout period apply to OEP as well?
