Pros

- Working in recruiting we were allowed a lot of latitude planning our appointments and days. - Worked with a lot of truly good people. - Faith based, and that does come through with culture. - Mileage paid - Good interaction with other state offices (recruiters) - Pleasant Regional Field Office Managing Partner. Buffered a lot of the stress

Cons

Long evenings. Overnight stays several (3-5) per month. There is a lot of pressure from the corporate office to contract new representatives. Weekly accountability and pressure meetings. Suit and tie every day. Driving your own vehicle Key activity is meeting with people to get referrals. Many of the areas have been covered many times before, so getting tougher to solicit and receive meetings.

Pros

You have a lot of control over what you spend your time doing. There is great upside financial opportunity if you can get off to a good start. If you struggle early on the rate of success drops tremendously.

Cons

The cost of doing business is really high between office rent, computer fees, and marketing costs you can really dig yourself a hole quickly. There is very little interest in whether you do well or not.

Pros

good solid company, if you team up with a successful veteran in the company you will have a better chance of success. wide variety of insurance and investment vehicles to work with.

Cons

if you do not team up with a successful vertan it can be hard to get going. the compensation began to change when I was leaving and was moving away from asset management back to more of an insurance company.
