Hi, I am a soon to be new agent. I take the exam for Tx in a week. I will be starting with Aflac, I know, I have seen some not so flattering things about them here. But they are easy to get on with and seem to have a good product, that I have used personally. It is also something I can start with part time to learn the business. ( If anyone has a better suggestion though, I am open to hearing it.)
The problem I face , well one of them, is that I am new in town and don't know a lot of people. So I was thinking that since I will be marketing primarily to small businesses that maybe I could find some way of providing them with something they need as a way of building a relationship. I was thinking something along the lines of free seminars or classes for new business owners, maybe partner with some accountants in the area and have them offer some info on taxes, or something like that.
Just wondering if any of you get what I am saying and do you think something like that would work, maybe.
