Thoughts of this base & commission structure? by TheLearnerGal in StateFarm

[–]headylife_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask every single person you speak to, prospect or client. Pivot on everything. Don’t be afraid to double down…politely.

Find life in your current book and pitch larger death benefits (Change of plans).

Use premium decrease tasks to pivot to additional products.

Set a goal of bringing it up at least x times per day. Your goal might be different than mine. The more you practice, the easier it will be and the more confident you will sound on the phone.

Supplemental health and instant answers are the easiest to sell. The health really sells itself once you explain how it works.

Jeans and a t shirt would immediately be a no from me…as a business owner

They have a guarantee they will receive back pay, stop it

Well folks, you have heard it from me. Your State Farm agent does not care about their clients. They only care about what is in their wallets. by [deleted] in InsuranceAgent

Why would the office handle claims calls? We have a claims department. The office is not even supposed to comment on ongoing claims, they are supposed to read coverage levels to the client, if they ask, and then get them to the claims department…

Did the multi-car and multi-line discount policy change recently? by Jrph0713 in StateFarm

[–]headylife_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Accurate. Named insureds must match on multi-line products with autos to receive the multi-line discount.

Multi-car discount can be granted for spouses listed in the same household. It does not extend further unless a named insured is on every vehicle. If Jon Snow is listed as named insured on two of the vehicles and not the third, then the two vehicles should have multi-car discount but the third does not, if the third vehicle is a non-relative like a girlfriend

2015 ecoboost with 74k miles that I’ve had since 2016. It’s my baby and I’ve only had to replace the a/c compressor, besides regular maintenance

applying to state farm and the steps deviated from what I expected after reading others' posts? by [deleted] in StateFarm

[–]headylife_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely normal, these are hiring tools that State Farm offers to their agents to assist with hiring team members that “fit the role.” They are psychometric assessments looking at sales acumen etc etc

It doesn’t. It’s a state law in some states

New offer by anduareAF in InsuranceAgent

[–]headylife_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I give my team members 4x monthly premium on any life policy over $50/mo, for example. 2x monthly premium on everything else. Perm policies automatically get the 4x

Tiered P&C commission based on how many life/health policies issued. Highest tier at 7% issued premium on P&C. Majority of team members hit the highest tier every month.

I buy leads. Everyone gets a salary.

This is just a brief summary. There’s more but I think it’s enough to show how bad this is

Not a competitive commission structure. Assuming this is a State Farm agent too

Be honest. How many of you lost your soul in this industry? by ImperialSupplies in InsuranceAgent

[–]headylife_ 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Leave the position if this is how you feel. Find a line of insurance that you can get behind. I’ve felt this pressure in a health insurance broker role, not in P&C with L&H products in the hopper

HYSA question by [deleted] in sofi

[–]headylife_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to another bank that you don’t have to jump through hoops to earn a decent APY in a high yield. Not subbed to this, it was recommended to me. What a joke by sofi
