Pros

Sales driven Teaches you to work hard

Cons

Training is too long. Once they get you on board the MGAs just forget about you. They also tell you to lie which I was not comfortable with.

Not very honest from the start

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Support and Motivation - Can make good money if making sales

Cons

- Weren’t honest and upfront about the whole training cost/process and hours to be worked once actually working. - most of your work is outside 9-5 hours so you’ll be visiting people’s homes on afternoons/weekenights and weekends (when they’re home from work). Instead, you are sold to the idea that you can work whenever you want, which is rather true, but deceptive in the sense that most of your leads and customers have work commitments and the most suitable times to meet them are after hours. - leads are initially promised but end up being recycled or no good - Bait and switch. You will claim to deliver “free” kids safety package to parents but end up trying to sell insurance once you’re there.
