It is scary. In Primerica, the OWNER is the POTENTIAL or out right RVP and the franchise is the RECRUIT. Again, I am not an agent. I ahve already proved this in several areas, I love to see your termination notice. Tom, you twist facts and have the ability to not understand. God Bless Everybody, even the ones that dont think like us. The middle class in North America is dying under debt, waist full whole life insurance and poor/no savings for retirement. For so many reasons. Usually the policy starts to generate cash valve at year 5. I guess thye have the understanding of value. Please do not confuse me with any other James; this is the only post that I have written. You remember about how the companies will call and try to convert. . Now if you went after (and you made it your mission to) you could certainly put a dent in any industryPFS has for the last 31 years. Since then I have attracted FOUR ex-Primerica RVPs, and have 104 Reps. Of which 22 are securities-licensed. But then again, I am smarter than most, and not as gullable as your clients. If you make mistakes on the easy things one will wonder if anything else you say or do is suspect. I have seen the checks on policies that were higher. This is natural and understandable. I have three CPAs in my firm, two P&C Agency OWNERS, a real estate professional, and a bank teller. Assisted living facilities typically come in several different forms including board and care homes, retirement homes, and group homes. But let us go back to the original point that Tom made and you have chose to ignore. Because I have already proved that their products are not equal. They need to cut back somewhere. 2. I know very little about financial services and Im not going to pretend like I do. Since Micheal or Thomas, which ever name he goes under can seem to read simple English and understand simple written word, I think he did something foolish and got terminated. If you get caught in a lie you sweep it under the rug and try to hope that no ones catches you. Since you said you offer these worthless products, does that mean you will sell what ever you can make a buck on? It was a way to take more money from the potential clients. Primerica is one of the only company that gives you a chance to know everything the Big finance companies know, by government licensing in your name, with a payment of $99. . It is 99 and covers the following, securities, life, auto and home referals and mortgage. If you as a consumer called me and said James, I have a Trane 5 ton Gas Pack rooftop unit and would like to have it replaced, do you sell them? Example, Insurance companies giving you examples is not a good source. do you do a lot of VA business? It is to the benefit of both the RVP and the downlines that he gives them the BEST training so they can branch off and Build Their Own Business in Primerica. If you are saying converting the term to a new term, did you not know that all Primerica Policies have Guaranteed insurability. Each college degree aligns with students' different personal interests and professional goals. But then again, Magicians never want you to watch the correct hand. You mentioned that Primerica may not cover them. So what happens when you client cancels when he finds it cheaper with another agent.. PFS I do not like because you are captive. The inability to read and understand. Well Trying to understand what you are meaning to say is the only way I can correct your improper thinking. They say its a forced savings plan. So it cost you, the independent, over $2000 to get the same things it cost the Priemrica (spelling) agent, $99. , If you are saying accidental death and dismemberment, then I have covered it above. This proves a couple things: Also who did not have to pay thousands of dollars to get licensed to sell you products that are questionably good for you at best and at worse definitely not good for you. It is not my business but If I was spouting facts as you said you are, why not give you name, unless you have something to hide. Recruit, recruit, recruitKeep throwing it against the wall and keep what sticks. ; ). WHy Point: if you are marketing Primericas term, you are not offering your client the best product, both in price and feauturs. I like options. Talk is cheap. It can be. Using these two devices instead of buying term and investing the difference in mutual funds, will only make the salesperson and the company he works for rich. Then theres compensation and then theres marketing. Could it be that the policies are not as good? Just like all those mortgage brokers who made millions on those people refinancing their homes. Why do you think some hotels only get $50.00 a night and others get $500.00? Then I came to you and said, hey come work for me and market these products. Back to the shoe example. Tom I think its because of you PFS agents dont post. Well industry wide only about 2-3% of Term policys go to claim, but peope have 100% of dying. _____________________. Since there is more than one James, I am not sure which one needs to see this more. Cash value companies. Pays 1 to 5% guaranteed. This means it is not as viable as companies that have posted a gain. Please do not get me wrong, personally I do not like Amway, Quixtar however I like Mary Kay. You are in denial if you think you will get rich off these products alone that have a small trail and a trail only if you are even licensed with your 6 or 63. With the conversion they can lock in a rate and face amount for life. Your financial situation is unique and the products and services we review may not be right for your circumstances. Well then the 18yr old just gives everyone he knows away the senior guys are happy and the junior guy thinks thats great, but then the will runs dry.. uh oh.. now its time for real business and talking to people we dont know.. ummm how about we just get another idiot to be convienced to join and well exploit his warm market.. and round and round this vicious cycle we profit the 18yr old tries to coach, but cant why.. hes not licensed or at that level.. hey they never told me that so yep.. that regional or rvp gets all that business and u thought u owned a business uh no but ur are a 1099 employee.. wait.. dont u criticise them too.. umm ya u do.. wow.. so many flaws in this model.. so there lies the reason to recruit.. it continually opens up that persons warm market and u move on.. u sleep at night because you say, who am i do judge someones potential well wake up people.. you are judged every single day by your potential and rightly so.. are you going to tell me your fund managers dont judge funds potential based off history and past performance or do you want there money invested in a company where they say.. hmmm hey lets give them a chance no.. just doesnt work that way. So you sell the newest and most recent thing before it is tested. IT seems you never learned when you were there. I mean who underwrites the policies Michael?

Should your health change, and should you not be able to buy a new policy elsewhere, you may find the conversion option important. WebIt looks more like you are trying to list the proficiency levels, can they be like below - Novice (unskilled, not knowing, new to) - Beginner (Learning) - Competent (knows adequately, qualified) - Proficient (practiced, skillful) - Expert (well practiced, having versatile knowledge) bas Nov 15, 2018 at 6:01 Show 6 more comments 8.

It comes with a 0.30% annual fee and a $500 minimum deposit. I know the agent that sold the policy did not do the complete job. Some people want some sort of guarantee. Do you think Michael made every sale to get to 100,000 dollars? From your nonresearch comments, about that most money is being made from recruiting people rather than selling products. Not all policies offer the same time period for conversion to take place, and not all give you access to the same types of whole life. It was for almost 3 million dollars. 1. If youve never had a commission job, start part time as I am. Or do not beleive that Life Insurance is for Income replacement, and not using to go to Disneyland? In Primerica, you do not get paid unless you help families. Many have have come and gone before you. Its not.. Just last night I was talking to an independent insurance agent who used to be a Primerica RVP years ago. And since you keep saying cheaper, here is another story. If I have a question about any of my products, who do I call, My agent. His sales pitch how my wife and I would be a great managers working for PFS. The client can combine the terms.

If people want to start with PFS great, just know you can earn more money and have the ability to offer more products outside of Primerica.

More power to Citi putting PFS on the marketthe leadership is different and goals have been restructurednoone knows yet whats gonna happen but by no means would that EVER mean PFS is out of the picture.

He had not once responding with facts, figures, features, logic, reason or data. It is why MetLife was willing to buy all the risk with the insurance that they sell, to get to this gold mine of a sales force.

You just do not sit back and collect a paycheck because you joined the company. Agents are independent contractors. I can only guess it is Bills financial services and mechanics service. These agents or just plain employee mindset people dont know anything about building a business or company from scratch or even their own client base because it was given to them by the former agency maintainer. The great thing about it is people can try it out part-time first and if its for them then look furthur in the future. Term is cheapest in the beginning, as you get older it and have quote run it will be more expensive. IF you do not think so, then look up the owners of the stock. Which means try to leave for something better see how nasty your old friends get. And if you do not value your family time, your personal time, time when you are not working, they will pester you until you convert or cancel caused by the harassment, or die.
