I've got a buddy who is working for captive call center. He just started and in his first full month he sold 37 policies. Half of them supps. The rest a mixture of cancer and DVT and 1 life.
This past week he sold over 40 polices! He's mainly cold calling and he gets live transfer and television T65 leads.
Problem is they're screwing him. He's not even getting commission. They're giving him spiffs. Like $100 for a sup, $25 for cancer etc. He also makes an hourly wage.
I recommended he ask them to put him on 100% straight commission, which he had already asked and they flat out told him NO.
I have recommended the Indy route of course, but being a broke 20 year old, he doesn't think he has what it takes to go Indy. I'm also not sure if he would be as productive in a non-call center environment.
So, with all that said, does anybody know of a similarly structured organization that would actually pay commission instead of spiffs? Even if he took a 10-13% for supps and 50% of street for the other products he would double to triple his income now and with renewals be way up there in just a few years.
He would be willing to move. Prefers to move closer to family in IN, but anywhere in the Midwest would be fine.
Any groups like that out there?
