Pros

Opportunity is endless. Training is ample. Product line sells itself once demo'd.

Cons

Where are the benefits for the independant agents? How can a leader in the insurance business not be able or capable of pooling resources and offering some type of benefits to agents. Dead leads or over abused leads. You need to have some form of cash reserves available before ever thinking of doing this job. if you do not hit a homerun right off the bat, then expect some very lean months financially. I had to keep a part-time job to offset bills and expenses.

Advice to Senior Management

Stick to some type of gameplan. Find a sytem that can be sustained nationally and work to that solution.
