SURVEY: Why Do You Like "P & C?"

[Mario1]

Has anyone made the switch from an indy Life & Annuity broker to working the P&C side for an establised angency? I'm seriously considering it, a major company is hiring right done the street. I love sales, I love being self-employed, but the continious stress is eating me alive...I'm approaching the last stage of my working years and it would sure be nice to have abook of business built up and yes, being on the golf course!

1. Renewals

4. No single payer system in the near future
5. Barrier to entry that L/H does not have. Our carriers don't just appoint any licensed agent with E&O coverage in place.

1. It's required
2. People pay attention to it
3. It gets butts in seats for other opportunities in the L&H/ financial services side.

Cons:
1. It is high maintenance compared to life
2. Lots of little sales takes a lot of time opposed to big payoff of winning an account (personal lines at least)
3. Lots of bill chasing

My favorite part- butts in seats. This is your golden ticket to selling anything.
