Pros

It's a good place to start insurance selling, they have decent training and go on appointments with you. Overall they have ok support for new agents and help you for the first 2 months. After that you are on your own.

Cons

its 5 years before you own your renewals. They promise qualified leads but 99% of it is cold calling lists. Commissions can be higher at other insurance carriers. You aren't allowed to sell for any other company but bankers which limits your service to the client.

Pros

Bankers provides award winning training, an elaborate product portfolio and a rapidly growing market. They leverage cutting edge technology: contact and LEAD management, electronic business submission, an incredible proprietary mobile application. I have 11 companies I can be appointed with - making sure my clients get the best program for what they NEED. A great opportunity to receive great training, work with great people and make a great living, all for helping people.

Cons

This opportunity is just that, an opportunity. Those who don't take advantage of it won't think it is a good one. Even successful people deal with a ton of rejection, thick skin is needed. With a 40% closing ratio, I still hear "No" more than "Yes".
