Seriously? If someone asks you the commission structure, you tell them (in whatever way) to KMA? Nice way to gain trust with your clients.
1. Its pretty easy to Google it
2. Consumers SHOULD know how much we make.
3. If someone looks, I bitch about the commission disparity between MS and MAPD on a regular basis on Twitter.
4. EVERYONE makes more on MAPD. Carriers, General Agents, Agents. Anyone who doesn't think "follow the money" isn't contributing the rise in MAPD needs to wake up.
5. Here's my spiel: "I make 3x as much on Medicare Advantage vs Medicare Supplement. If you want the exact numbers, I can give you Advantage because its published by CMS, if you want Medigap, it varies based on carrier. For budgeting purposes, I assume $22 per month for 7 years."
And the sexist answer. Women, especially, need to be more open on income/salary. It will help to destroy the wage gap. The days of not disclosing income between peers needs to end. On the other hand, the wage gap was a contributing factor in me jumping off the cliff.
I mean, I don't like talking about specifics of money, AND I don't think it changes anything on my end... but as long as it isn't part of a script and people have to ask I'd be fine with it

Another thing nobody talks about when mentioning comp with mapd are the prorated commissions . In July I make $150,aug $125 , sept $100. That hardly pays gas . From your Oct 1- Jan 5 th you make zero commissions outside renewals . A new agent starting out having to buy his own leads has little chance to succeed selling mapd only . I saw the 2 plus yr potential of Medicare and the chance to get off the fe hamster wheel . This week again fortified my choice as the Medicare renewal checks hit . It’s so sweet .But the overrides renewals for agents are crazy . I know a guy with 10 or so producing agents making $300k a yr in overrides .

Doesn't matter at this point. I signed you up yesterday.Not sure if this is just for biological women, or if it includes men who identify as women.
