Shocking news: 1,000 life insurance agents got fired today 

I was a 1099 Medicare Agent for that company. Literally sold a Medicare Advantage plan, took a break, came back the dialer wasn’t working and I got the news. I was already working a plan to leave the company and Medicare industry to go into Life Insurance and Annuities. The shady ads telling people they’re going to get stimulus checks and $6K benefit cards just morally didn’t sit right with me. Assurance shutting down was a blessing in disguise. Appreciate your content it’s really helping with my transition.

Best route is to be non captive!!

Selling life insurance is not easy. That’s why the turnover rate is so high plus they don’t pay you a base salary.

Good content, my expenses are lower because I am cultivating my own leads.

Im taking my test tomorrow ready for the grind,

Great Content - Honest Update - Thank You Pete!!

Great message Pete

I almost signed up with them good thing I didn’t

Yeah when CMS changed their Marketing dollars for those with Medicare. It hurt a lot of companies. Assurance included.

Love when you share this stuff. I was a captive agent for many years and lost a lot until I switched fields in 2020. In sept. 2023, I became an independent agent, it’s a different game. I lost money in 2023 because I jumped in the deep end, fortunately I’m doing great now. Vids like this keeps me humble, and the live sales calls for me are what listening to music before a game is to a football player, I get motivated. Appreciate you bro!

Good stuff, thanks

I finally got my license after dealing with the state for 2 months. The company I was going to go to work for I am having second thoughts. There have been red flags and I don't think I want to go with them. I found out they aren't a MLM, but might as well be. I have been keeping them updated on my situation as I got my license, but they dont respond back. Not an "okay, ok, k,👍 or anything. I haven't sent my info over to them yet in case I wanted to go somewhere else. I wouldn't be locked in with them .

I was still contracted for them but have been selling life insurance captive for the past 2 years, so I haven’t sold with Assurance in a while. I checked my email to find out that they released my Medicare appointments and are closing.

For the 60 second video do we have to post it on RU-vid?

Hi Peter! I am currently a sales agent for property and casualty but I want to start my journey in life insurance and I would like to get all the help I can to start studying to prepare for the exam. I am in Texas and wanted to know if there's any resources you can send my way any study materials pdf that I can get a head start reading. I would appreciate it very much or anyone out there willing to help me😊

I love your content and appreciate how you just put us all on game becuase youve genuinely done well for yourself in this industry and I work for possibly the company that you may have joined from the start and I think ffl it’s a good company depending on the agency you join like me personally I am under a lady boss that buys me all my leads like over 1k a week in leads and I sold 40k this month as my first month doing it full time since quitting my job still hasn’t even been 90 days since I started selling period and I haven’t been advised to buy leads if anything they tell me while I’m at 70% comp to just relax and prove to myself I can be profitable off any leads and prove to myself I can sell to anyone before I go and generate my own leads whenever I break away and start having to pay for my own deals becuase that’s when it will actually matter. One question tho is I think I’m a very natural at sales n general this is my first sales job that i actually committed to was thinking about doing door to door but I hear so many bad stories about ffl and I always comment on your vids becuase I wanna know your opinion on them and specifically the company Americo

AI replaced the agents for $0.25 commission per policy.

I caught on very quickly, and luckily, right after I got my license. I'm still on the fence, and I have so many questions.

I was working health aca for them woke up with out any warning and no job lol definitely not a great company

I have a question Peter. I recently started working for a company and sometimes the leads number are not in service and the names don’t match the phone number. Is this normal? Are we getting scam? Also the way it works is that once you buy the pack they give you the leads little by little not the 25 pack at once. Something seems fishy. But here people are making money for sure but I’m new to this and I’m just a little worry

Are you buying leads to produce?

No offense man, but hearing you say you want to change the industry but yet during your sales scripts you're teaching to call prospects and use an opening line like "HEY ARE YOU OKAY?!" Feels disingenuous to say the least. I wouldn't want the insurance industry to go in that direction.

Hey Peter I’ve been doing research telling me that whole life policies are a scam. The company i work for sells a whole lot of whole life. So I haven’t been quite sure how to feel about it. After doing the maths I don’t feel like some of our products are a good deal. What do you think about this?

nothing but bs

get to the point.

I was one of those agents 🥸
