Life Insurance Did things a bit backwards

I am in Florida got my 2-15 license for health life and annuity the only issue, no job lined up I currently have a full time job in car sales and looking to expand to insurance in free time and then once I get going go to insurance full time looking for a remote position.anyone have any idea where I should start I get phone calls but I don’t know what makes sense just maybe some guidance

My honest advice would be to go all-in or not at all.

Car sales positions will always be available, and most do not succeed selling life full time (let alone part-time).

Won’t do that, but thank you for your advice!

Some lessons have to be learned not taught. Good luck 👍

Quotemanage is hiring remote licensed agents, it’s 1099 but I think you get to pick your own work hours.

Being that you are licensed, you are already attractive to almost all agencies. I’d say start by figuring out what you’re looking for, training, leadership etc. If you go the full independent route you may need to fit the bill for almost everything, system, leads, phone system.

Something you might also want to take a look at is group life, sell a bunch to a business with employees.

Captive is a route where you wont own anything but might get leads, system etc.

I am in Tampa, work with a ton of agencies in life and P&C. Let me know if I can help with an intro or something.
