Why Insurance?

Finding success in this profession is very rewarding because you know you're paid what you earn

“Residual income can change your life.”

In insurance, other than licensing requirements, there are no educational degrees needed and no need for prior sales experience. Anybody who is willing to put forth an effort and believes in the product being sold can make it in this field.

But why would insurance sales be one of the highest paid sales professions? Most people would respond, “Because everyone needs insurance.” Well, yes, everybody needs it, but there is another reason.

Residual Income

Shoe salespeople don’t make extraordinary incomes although everybody needs shoes. The big difference between insurance sales and other sales jobs is the residual income.

How does residual income work?

Agents are paid each month from policy renewals beginning the second policy year. Without this residual income, a sales person is only as good as his or her last sale. For individuals in any other sales field such as real estate or car sales, in order to increase their income, they have to increase the number of units they sell. At the beginning of each week, month, or year, they start over — what they’ve sold in the past doesn’t matter. They’re only paid for what they do in the present, but not the past.

Not so with insurance sales. Our Agents continue to make money from sales they made years and even decades ago. Make more money before you even get out of bed in the mornings!

Insurance sales do well during good and bad economic times – that's because people are interested in protecting assets that have taken many years to accumulate, or because they understand the need to ensure their families will be protected when the unexpected happens. Insurance is a secure career because people will always need insurance. Enjoy a satisfying career with Liberty National by helping people find the coverage that is right for their changing lifestyles.
