I'm straight commission with a captive agency that only sells Assurant. We work long hours Monday and Tuesday in order to set our appointments for the week. If we don't sell at least four apps we're supposed to come in on Saturday for training--because obviously we're not following the program right. We're provided with telemarketed leads we're the prospects are supposed to be expecting our call.
My question is this: What would be considered a good week under these circumstances for a newbie? I mean, how much would a good weekly check be in order to qualify as a kick ass week? I'm not going to say what I brought home one week, but the higher ups seem to be making a big deal out of it, and some of the other people who've been working a couple of months longer than I have and whose opinion I respect, seem to think my check was a big deal. I'm hoping not because it was my expectation to regularly bring home checks of that amount.
Any advice or insights? With this captive agency I get 15 percent until, I guess, I have produced enough active apps and then I'll go to twenty percent.
Thanks.
