Need to find a good FMO (MGA?) or whatever you guys call them...

[LostDollar]

I'm a Newbie who made a mistake several months ago by going to work for a Medicare call center company. Found out (again) that I'm not good with structure (fixed schedule, long commute, quotas, time clock, mandatory meetings, etc). Now I'd like to explore being an independent or semi-independent agent, before I un-retire and go back to teaching full-time. I live in CO, and am licensed in about 18 other states, certified to sell MAPDs and Med Supps with UHC, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, MOO, and a few others, and have passed my 2019 AHIP. Had 4 weeks of crummy training. Looking for a good upline (if that's what you call them?) to sign on with that provides great training and support. I have money for leads, if they're decent (not recycled, old, sold to twenty different brokers, etc), and would like to do educational events because I don't mind standing up in front of people and teaching. Had pretty good early success building rapport and converting legitimate DSNP and CSNP leads into clients. Can anyone here give me some names of companies or people to check out? Thanks!

(I am not an agent)

From the perspective of support and training, I would suggest adding Senior Market Specialists in Columbia MO to your list. (They have a Tuesday morning Medicare Cafe which you can participate in that would give you some sense of the personality of the organization.)

Gee, I always thought FMO was Field Marketing Organization and was interchangeable with IMO..

Nah, it's actually "Maintenance". It really doesn't matter in the long run though.

 

[Todd King]

So are you FIMO, or an IFMO?

Now you're just trying to confuse me! Good job...it worked!

Sooooo, which company do ou recommend?

 

[MoneyNirvana]

a mAPd company that gives you $2500 annually with $0 premiums and you dont care how that money is spent. You let it be known when selling MaPd, the money is meant for Health expenses only but you are free to spend it however you like.Consult a tax advisor for money spent thats given free to you.
