Pros

I have been a part timer with FFL for two years. My day job has a formindable pension so I don't want to quit but I don't make what I want to make. FFL has been amazing. Part-time I make more than my day job. I can retire from my day job in 5 years with a full pension then I plan to go full time with FFL!!

Cons

It's work like any job but you work for yourself.

Pros

Nice people, can earn first week in field, quality product lines. If you have the cash reserves, you can really work your way into a significant income. You work for yourself primarily .

Cons

It takes about $700 - $1k a week in leads to generate a full time income. It also takes a couple months to get up to speed on all the products. You need some capital to get started, and a few months savings to get up to speed. Probably the one thing that is glossed over in the hiring process. If you really want to earn serious income, it is 6 hrs a day, 12 hr days for the most part.

Pros

Good community, but respective to your direct upline, and VP

Cons

- Negatively fast-paced by encouraging agents to buy leads, which are not a good fit and long term sustainable - Negatively teaches agent to take advanced which is not good as agent lives on borrowed income, and mismanages clientele, and thus mostly cannot be equipped to handle chargebacks - Terrible express simplified issue products that are pushed onto every clientele - Culture is to work 24/7 and thus causes burn out and mishandling of finances. - MLM only benefits the top

What's very confusing about the "cons" that this individual listed is that most of these are aspects of our business that are marketed so that every agent working with us is informed of how our business model works. As far as leads go, yes we do conduct a lead based sale and thousands of agents have success in buying leads and writing business off of them. This is something that we talk about in our marketing and when an agent joins us. We do not teach agents to take an advance on their policies, that decision is up to the agent. All carriers allow you to choose from taking an advance or contracting as earned. If you really believe taking an advanced commission is somehow negative you can elect to be paid as earned. We do sell mostly simplified issue products, they are not "pushed" on every client however every client fills out a form or applies online to an advertisement for a non-medical simplified issue product so we are selling them exactly what they are looking for. Our culture is not to work 24/7 but we have learned that agents working 40 hours a week in sales with us have the most success. As far as "only benefiting the top" that could not be further from the truth. Our comp program is the most aggressive in the industry, it was designed to allow the agents to keep as much money as possible from their sales. We do this by vesting renewals day one, and having our comp plan go from 100-140%
