How Do You Learn Insurance?

Answer 1

Usually the process is enrolling in pre-licensing classes, getting licensed, and then expanding your education as you expand your practice.

Being an insurance agent can be both lucrative and rewarding, but the vast majority (about 80%) decide to try something different in less than two years, because it is more difficult than it seems. It is a 'nickle and dime' business which takes years to build into a practice which will give any kind of decent return.

An insurance agent is about half salesman and half lawyer. It is a complicated business and you get exposed to all sides of the human condition. It really isn't for everyone, but if you get the bug, it can be a great business to be in.

Your first step should be to talk to an existing agent in your State. Perhaps trying your hand as a producing agent for an existing agency isn't a bad thought either. My advice is not to invest too much before you know if the business is for your or not.
