Hello Everyone,
I would love to get your opinion. I'm 28 years old and worked for Liberty Mutual for 4 years after college selling personal lines p&c and life insurance. I left the insurance industry when I moved back to my home town 3 years ago. The city I grew up in has about 60k people and my family is pretty well connected. My current job requires me to be in an office 8-10 hours/day so I haven't built many relationships with potential centers of influence. I don't know anything about flood insurance, commercial, windstorm, health etc. as all I sold with LM was personal lines P&C. Had 650 auto/home policies on the books when I left. If I were to get back into the business now, should I attempt to go out on my own at this point or would I be better off going to work for another independent here in town? I don't know what I don't know. I would appreciate your thoughts!
