This is going to be a little long so please bear with me. I have been in sales all my life. I was in construction and decided to leave due to a dispute with the company. I had decided that I wanted to work in insurance and had my health and life license. I went to NYL just as the economy sunk. (Bad timing). I sold enough life to barely pay my bills and left NYL due to not making quota. Found another job and my health started to decline. Was finally diagnosed and have been working with drs to keep me working. I was hired by a major P&C company with a new agent. My sales have been solid. There was a major learning curve but have been selling 45 policies a month with the agent buying internet leads. After probation period I told agent about health problems. Agent was very understanding but I've just been off sick again for 2 days and have the feeling the axe is coming. My question is: I now work about 49 hrs a week and am paid a salary of $2000 a month plus about 350 a month bonus. Most of my sales are outside the office since I offer to go to the client. Clients love this. I would love to be indy but the only working capital I would have is unemployment. What type of income do you think is reasonable? I'm looking at P&C and life. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks.
