Pros
Helping people protect themselves and their paycheck is rewarding employment. There is no ceiling on your income potential because it’s 100% commission.
Cons
Part of your General Agents business plan is to recruit new agents. When those agents leave because they are not marking the kind of money they said they could make the General Agent inherits those clients you signed up. Look at the longevity of the General Agents recruits how long have they been there? High turnover because the agents don’t make any real money. They will try to sell you on the idea that for every 100 business calls made, you will set up at least four face-to-face meeting with a decision-maker to present our products, and that for every four meetings, you will close at least one sale.
