Carrier Popularity By Geographic Location?

[StrictlyIndependent]

Hello,

I'm going to start selling life insurance out of state soon. I am wondering which names are well known/liked or hated in different parts of the country.

I will be mostly targeting NJ,FL,WI,TX,PA,GA, and IL.

Thank you

What line of coverage?

No carriers are well liked in GA so you can forget about that state.

Life insurance and some DI. Why aren't any carriers liked in GA?

Life insurance and some DI.

Any carrier with NY in their name is not well received.

Why aren't any carriers liked in GA?

Because we don't trust carpetbagger agents from out of state.

I guess my GA clients must be the few who aren't small- minded.

You can sell in the metro area where Somarco is, that's really not part of Georgia anymore.

As far as from Macon down to the Fl. line, well that's my territory.

I heard Macon was now part of LA (Lower Alabama). Do you have electricity yet?

 

[David C]

Macon does, we don't. I was in the outhouse earlier and I thought that if Dubose Porter is elected governor he might bring electrification to this area.

TMI, David.

If you don't have electricity, you must be in Metter.
