I am currently a loan officer, looking for a transition into the car insurance and home owner insurance field, I have never sold any insurance ever, I have only sold loans and I am a top producer currently, however I know long term I want to own my own business, and I feel this would be a good fit, couple quick questions
1) What are the main nuiances I need to know about the business?
2) Can I become a independent broker and sell policies of all companies and just get my clients the best deal/situation?
3) How does the commissions work?
4) What steps do I need to take to prepare my self for this field?
5) Should I rent a space or work from home?
6) How clear is the process from finding a policy to finalizing it and time frame? End to end process?
7) What are potential pitfalls vs rewards to this career?
8) Realistically salary wise what can I expect ballpark?
Thank you for reading this post, and any advise at all would be greatly appreciated!
