Don't let these pikers get you down hodaka. They tryed to do it to me. You know we are in the same boat. We both sell a great plans that people need. I just had a client that drafted her will thru PPL. Even though she is a student with a child and is a dancer she need help just like everyone else.

I just love the captive agent mentality......always about the company.....look how great we are and in the other hand try not to look to close at the policy.....

Captive???? not at all.. Hartford, ING, Alllianz & AFLAC are the main insruance compaines I write for. I am licensed in tha State of Florida, 215 Life Health & Annuity, also series 7 & 66 license's.

It is my understanding that AFLAC has tremendous market penetration in Japan. No doubt that cancer policies really sell well in Japan inasmuch as they are the only country to have experienced frirst hand the aftereffects of an atomic bomb. I do not believe that AFLAC has much of a market penetration in the U.S.

BTW, I would have brought up the misspelling of sickle-cell if I had been able to to decipher WTF sisacell is supposed to mean.

Ah AFLAC was the first company to have a cancer ploicy...

And to make such a disingenous statement about the A-Boom, shows just how petty your mind works.

Re: Working for Aflac?

I dont know why we are even wasting time with this guy...

He doesnt understand what an indemnity plan is...

He thinks AFLAC is the only company that pays cash to clients...

He thinks AFLAC is the only company with a cancer policy ....

He keeps bringing up stats, the same stats, over and over again...

And for the longest time kept calling sickle-cell - sisacell ....

Read his posts, I am not lieng...

From what I see... and Hodakah will deny this... is that he is new to the company, has been brainwashed, and soon will learn...

Hodakah, if you love this market so much, get appointed with other companies and go out and sell it and make more money...

As for me, Im tired of dumbing down my posts so this guy can get a clue...

LOL---- do you believe what you write? have you read all my post's???
Not all indemnity plans pay all the benefit to the policy holder...

Holy cow!!! Not only do I hold my 215 Life Health & Annuity, I have my CLU as well, series 7 & 66 license's I write for Hartford, ING, AFLAC and Allianz. My series 7 & 66 is with Raymond James. I have been in the business for 18 years now and will be in full retirement in 2 years at age 50. I bet dollars to dough nuts my boat is longer than the house you live in, hehe not to mention the slip, ah this Saint Petersburg Florida living.

So how is the view out side Dayton these days??

Re: Working for Aflac?

Captive mentality. You write for one company so therefore want to know what the one company is that others write for.

As with many here, if I added up the gross sales for all of the major carriers that I write with, it would probably be a significant portion of the national GNP. So what? That fact alone does not make me rich or poor and the financial strength of a company is an important factor but not one that goes to the core of what is like for an agent to work either captive or exclusively with them. Those are two different discussions commpletely, unless you are just out to recruit agents on a churn and burn basis and are using it to convince them that the rising tide is lifting all boats. It isn't.

There are a lot of big companies out there that are shlock to work with from a commissions, a support point of view, or with regard to products. On the other hand there are some sweet little puppies that are honest, responsive, pay well, and not hyped up. Most folks here are licensed insurance agents. We dont need the frigging party line brochure talk. Save that for your clients. Agents (particularly the vulnerable newbies) are tyring to make a living and figure out what works for them and their clients without all the hot air. You have touted at length that AFLAC is great and is no different than any other field where life is what you make of it. The input from countless others places AFLAC well near the bottom of the barrel but you are saying that it is right for you. Fine, the newbies can be the judge. Those with experience aren't going to be swayed by the hype. If life and success are whatever you make of it anywhere then go with Amway or PrePaid Legal and see if it all comes out the same for anyone other than a few who were born with that mentality.

The GNP LOL man that is a lot of sales you must be Warren Buffett LOL

Yet still you do not say who it is you write for??? Like a fertilizer truck you spread the Bull real good..

Re: Working for Aflac?

hodaka1974, here's the deal. You believe in what you're doing. Others (some with direct experience) believe differently. Wisdom is gained from experience. Appreciate the different points of view. You've stated your case. It is time for you to set it all aside and review your experience a year from now. It is likely you will change your current beliefs.

Good luck to you.

You know what the need for a long boat makes up for, don't you...
