So I am lost and trying to find my way towards a long term option that can provide me stability...I have been in the industry for the last 10 years selling life, annuities and ltc for a captive fraternal insurance company. I left them a little over a year ago for a "job" selling outside of the insurance world. I quickly have found that that is not for me. Yes they gave me a nice base salary but their products wont sell and they micro manage every move you make and think they own you 24/7.
With that being said I am looking back to my options in the insurance world. I have a friend of mine who works for NYLife and says it has its pros and cons but they do provide him leads and orphans to work which at times he finds to be inconsistent. The reason the leads are so attractive to me is that when I sold for the captive company I was with is that they gave me a roster list to prospect from which helps with making your next sale. I was never trained to fish in the open ocean without a fish finder.
I have also looked into working with Liberty mutual (I do not have a P&C License) and plan on meeting with them to discuss their opportunity but based on the reviews I have found on here it seems like they are as well high pressure with the need to sell every day.
In the end I am not sure on what direction to go...I would love to be independent but I am not that confident to take the leap.
