I have a few questions but will give you a quick background. I'm mid 30's, non-degreed, have spent the last 9 yrs in B2B new business development with a company that I started in sales with and ended as VP of Sales over seeing 3 regions, 10 reps and was a minority shareholder. I sold my shares and am currently considering career options. I have studied and researched the financial service industry for the past 5 yrs and always thought I would become a financial advisor when this day came. I'm evaluating these opportunities but in the mean time have a friend who owns an well positioned Indy P&C Co. that I have been speaking with.
1. Anyone have any experience of P&C Ins. vs. Financial Planning as a career choice? Have you moved from one to the other and if so why?
2. What are realistic earnings for 1st, 3rd and 5th yr P&C guys? Indiv. vs. Commercial Lines
3. How much premium realistically is the the better guys carrying at 1, 3 and 5 yrs?
4. What is the normal split for someone with an Indy on new business and renewal business?
5. Why go with an independant instead of developing my own agency where I wouldn't have to split and what splits does it make sense to not do this
Thanks for the help!
