Fex Contracting or the Insurance Squad

[Abrasax]

I guess not too many agents have any experience with AION . I too thought it was suspect when they ask for $300 bucks but keep it a secret who your contracted with

But.... I'm guessing you decided against your better judgement to fork over $300 to an anonymous agency through a poorly designed Shopify Store and went on to make stupid amounts of money working from home and you can't disclose anything either because you're actually Mike because you signed a DND.

They keep it a secret who you are contracted with ?

Yup. Lots of hype but few names given except for a couple big obvious ones. The mystery companies (cheapest rates period, big claims like that) are never disclosed. I spent a half hour on the phone a while back talking to his secretary and it reminded me of an MLM opportunity meeting, fully stocked with poorly timed takeaways (like I'm dying to part with my $300 tech fee....) and the whole "maybe this isn't for you because you don't know a good opportunity when you see one". It's horsecrap and I found the whole experience insulting to my intelligence.

I'll also say this. I am horrible at marketing, art, design and pretty much anything related, but I know good marketing and bad marketing when I see it. The Shopify website, the thumbnail images, the videos, the titles, are 100% cringeworthy. I unsubscribed from all his lists on day 2 when my wife gave me a concerned look after seeing a popup on my laptop notifying me of a newsletter from a redhead in a funny grey suit titled "Look what you did you little jerk!" That should set the scene pretty well.

Maybe Mike does have a good system, I don't know. But he's only going to attract suckers and rubes with his Wizard of Oz marketing approach.

What was attractive to you about contracting with them to start with? I've never heard of them. But something must have caught your attention. What was it.

You should NEVER pay money to any agency for contracting.

Why wouldn't you know who you are contracting under? Why would anyone ever consider doing that?

Is this the same Aion that facilitates Medicare for AT&T employees? @somarco ?

I've talked to a few agents from there. Telesales for health mostly. Seems like they have different (worse) rates for the same products we can offer.

AION is what Michael K. named his Agency I believe.

I looked into it before i went with Digital , and they tried to make me watch a 30 minute video explaining what Aion is and it's just a interview showing the guy who actually made the system that Mike uses (Cold calling for term B2B) and showing his W2. The system itself works but i would never trust him with my contracting or training anyone.

I doubt it.

Aon is/was the retiree plan "consultant" for ATT (and Bell) retirees. I have clients that fall in that group, but never heard anything about an up front fee or taking a vow of silence. Sounds pretty sketchy if you ask me.

There was no fee to the retiree. They only offered a few carriers and often the rates were higher than what is available on the open market.

The clerks that manned the phones were mostly clueless. They would follow a script and punch your question into a computer then read the answer.

Calls were timed. If you took more than 15 minutes and had not decided they would cut you off and tell you to call back in a few weeks. Retirees were under a deadline. Only had a few weeks to decide. If they failed to meet the deadline or did not buy at least something from Aon they forfeited the HRA money.

Overall a lousy system for the retirees.

That's AON, whose roots go back to W. Clement Stone.

AION, is Michael K., formerly a Regional Director(or whatever the title was) with you at EFES...AKA Broker4Ever, FinalExpenseDojo(often called DoJo for short. I suppose we can shorten it some more to either Do...or Jo).

Yeah, the same guy that claims he has a 150% contract with Mutual when it's actually only 125%.
