How much an hour does an insurance agent make?

Having worked for an insurance agent, it is important to note that most insurance agents are paid based on a commission scale that relates directly to the amount of insurance premium they collect, not based on an hourly wage. That of course may depend on which company the agent works for, and whether or not they are an independent agent. Because the salary is based directly on the amount of insurance premium collected by the agent, it can be very difficult to determine an average salary for an agent. Usually salaries range from 35000 to well over 100000 per year, again depending on the size of the agents book of business.

Facts about Insurance Agent School?

Insurance agents are required, at a minimum, to be licensed in order to sell insurance. Each state has different requirements. Insurance agencies usually have specific educational requirements that include a college degree. A degree in business and sales is most appropriate for insurance agents. After the initial requirement is filled, the potential employee will be required to go through insurance agent school. Insurance agent schools provide necessary tools for agents to perform their job properly. This includes customer relations, sales techniques, difference in types of insurance and how to properly execute the paperwork necessary to complete a transaction. An insurance agent school program is often paid for by the employer with the provision that the insurance agent works a designated amount of time with their office. This is a great way for potential insurance agents to get through school and into work immediately following successful completion of the program. Insurance agents usually work on a commission basis. That means that the agent makes a certain percentage of the amount of insurance he or she sells. If the agent is unable to secure any insurance sales, he or she will not make any money. The percentage of the commission depends on the company the insurance agent works for. It can run from 30% to 70% which is strictly dependent on the contract between the insurance agency and the insurance agent. It also depends on the type of insurance being sold. For example there is a difference between pay for homeowner's insurance and life insurance. Since many types of insurance are required, there is great potential for insurance agents to make extremely good commissions. Attending an insurance agent school will give the student the knowledge to sell insurance at a high rate. Insurance agents provide the ability to get necessary insurance coverage as well as more uncommon insurance types. The possibilities are, literally, endless for insurance agents who understand how sales work and how to properly close an insurance sale.
