Platinum Supplemental Insurance Reviews

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. We appreciate hearing about your perspective. There’s no doubt, this career is for those who can take on a challenge for great reward. That’s one reason the commission and bonus opportunities are so significant. Representatives who find success here are highly motivated by the customers they are able to help and the financial and life goals this career helps them realize. Nearly 75 percent of our representatives earned six-figure incomes in 2018. We want to offer as much support as we can to help our representatives succeed as soon as possible, which includes pre-field training, self-study and first-week training. The sales process is pretty straightforward, and the best way to be truly ready, is to give it a try on your own and continue learning from those experiences. Something that sets Platinum apart is the fact that your team and team leaders are with you and available to lend a hand when you need it. Thanks, again, and all the best in your next position.

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. Our agents are independent sales representatives and travel typically four days a week (Monday—Thursday) within their state. We understand this isn’t the right fit for everyone, but many adapt for the opportunity for enhanced income, company support, three-day weekends and the other advantages you outlined. Weekly expenses are typical for independent contractors, and as a company, we do what we can to keep costs low and consider those in our compensation and bonus structures. Our representatives work specific territories and all leads within that territory belong to the assigned representative—team leaders help coordinate territories. Every company in our industry approaches training and support a little differently, and we have found that our representatives have the most success with personal preparation, pre-field training, hands-on training, team support and a structured sales system. We’re always interested in enhancing our training, and we hope you had a chance to provide more detailed feedback in your exit interview. We wish you well in your future career.

Thank you for sharing your experience!

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your experienced perspective on our product and sales process. Our expansion in to states such as Wyoming, Idaho and Utah is still fairly new, and the hard work of those teams to reach new customers is recognized. As we build a stronger foothold in those states, like our Midwest states, visits with referral leads and current customers will become more common. As a company, we value compliance with state and county regulations, so, for that reason, we do request permits in the areas in which we work. Thanks again for sharing your experience. We wish you the best in your current role.

Platinum is an equal opportunity employer, and we take seriously our mission to create an extraordinary career opportunity for all sales representatives and employees who join our team. You indicated you were well supported by your team and did experience some success, but we are discouraged by the customer experience you describe. Those views are not a reflection of Platinum. While Platinum does make suggestions for success during training regarding professional presentation, we do not make requirements of appearance, especially as you describe. Our outside sales representatives are independent contractors and, while they are responsible for their own business expenses as a result, this allows for significantly higher income potential, among other advantages. All contracted representatives sign their contracts at will. We understand you have reviewed your contact with members of our leadership team, and your commission concerns have been addressed. We appreciate your perspective, and we wish you well in your future endeavors.

Thank you for notifying us of your feedback and concerns. The work we do here at Platinum is guided by a strong mission and vision, neither of which allow any room for discrimination or harassment. We would like the opportunity to take a closer look at the specific instance you’re referring to and check in on how it’s being addressed, but we need more information than what is provided in your review. Please consider reaching out to Alyssa, director of sales operations, at 563-557-6847. Your assistance is appreciated. We’re disappointed this didn’t work out, especially since you believed in the product and its quality. Careers with high income potential are typically high challenge. For many, adjusting to some sacrifices has led to a great living. Please keep in mind that our primary customers are farmers and rural residents, and our representatives align their schedules and travel to meet the needs of the customers. We understand a preference for a more hands-off management style, and there are companies that are suited to that. At Platinum, we have seen the positive impact quality hands-on coaching and teamwork have on our representatives’ success, and we believe this sets us apart. Our sales representatives are independent contractors, which means income level is not promised. People choose this type of opportunity to increase their income potential in line with their hard work. During the interview phase, we demonstrate what is possible based on actual results, and then we offer training and resources to support your effort and success. We hope to hear from you and wish you the best in your future career.
