Pros

Now that I've had a taste as an independent insurance agent I can't see myself going back to the 9-5 world. Have I made tremendous money in my 1st two years, no. Have I enjoyed the experience tremendously? Absolutely!! I know full well that this will pay off in the long run. Any type of insurance sales is a marathon, not a sprint. Anyone telling you that you will make 6 figures right off the bat is lying. (Although some do, but it is the exception not the rule. With regards to AFLAC, the team I have worked with offer fantastic support, product training, and leadership. They give you the tools, you just have to go use them. Also it is a great product

Cons

There is no salary, no benefits. You have to get your own leads, but that is very easy. How you perform is up to you. If you need hand holding or expect a minimum salary look elsewhere but otherwise I do recommend AFLAC

Pros

If you have very few expenses or can get by on the income of a spouse this can be a great opportunity for you. It is a lot of hard work, but it can be very rewarding. This is definitely a career commitment though. The first few years don't expect much, but if you can stick it out for 3+ years you will have a great life because of recurring income! I loved my team, it is easy to get behind this company as you know you are helping people.

Cons

With all that being said, there are a lot of things that I wished they had informed us on. They focus on getting you new accounts and making money. They don't put any energy on keeping the accounts or how to set up the accounts correctly. If your accounts don't pay their bill for the entire first year you have to pay money back to Aflac. So you have to check your online website all the time to make sure people are paying their bills. There is plenty of work on the back end of it that takes away from getting new business as well.
