Need Help or Advice

[Nttwrkz LLC]

Hello everyone!

I'm looking to go independent but I don't know how to I go about signing with different insurance companies. I'm captive rt now with NYL but I haven't been there long, only about 6 months. I actually have until next month to produce more business or else. I'm not worried about that at all, I just want to do my own thing.

Can anyone recommend any companies that would be a good for me to write business for. I've only been in the business for about a year. Also, do I have to be a broker to write for multiple insurance companies? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Becoming a health insurance agent

This thread was my Bible for weeks when I was first looking into getting started. Once you've read absolutely everything in there, you should have an excellent picture in your head about what you'll need to do to get started.

If you haven't produced for NYL, what makes you think you can produce for yourself?

If you haven't produced for NYL, what makes you think you can produce for yourself?

That is a very good question and I have an answer. The reason I haven't produced well for this company is because of all the red tape I go through with underwriting, my willingness to not be owned and the fact that I don't like having "production deadlines". I understand that this business is production base and there are some deadlines but I want make straight commission without the salary and restrictions that comes with a captive company. I found a way to get good leads, I'm not worried about that, it's just that I don't want to be owned by anyone.
I'm currently working with a city and I'm reluctant to give this business to NYL cause I know I'm not going to be there long and I would hate to have done all this work and when I leave, they keep the account and I get nothing. I'm working with a partner of mine who works for another captive company, so the people I can't sign up, for whatever reason, I pass them to him and he pays me under the table.

I know I can produce but, do I want to produce for someone else or do I want to produce for me? I want to produce for me. And besides, I had to produce in order to trigger my contract for NYL. Thanks for the feed back

Leads are not the answer in this business; it is your attitude and determination. Before emancipating yourself check to make sure that it is in fact your environment that is oppressing you as opposed to your attitude. I hope this helps.

Hi there!!

I'm currently contracted with NYL and AFLAC. I was supposed to resign from AFALC according to the bylaws of NYL but I never did, since I wasn't writing any business for them, I didn't find that necessary. I'm new in the business, so I don't really have a specialty. I'm experience in doing group benefits and life insurance, annuities and AFLAC products. Do u have anyone in mind who might give me a shot? Thanks

Do you specialize in individual or group sales?
