Letter from a Farmers Agent: Never Become an Agent

Letter from an Agent:

Do you know that Farmers uses the term subsidy when recruiting new agents but fails to truly explain that it is a "loan" unless you meet all of the requirements. These requirements have to be met every 3months and sometimes the reports don't accurately show the true numbers for the agents. They take honest hard working people and put them in debt - fast! It is all about Life, sell more life insurance, that is where Farmers makes most of their money, but the agents don't! It isn't an even playing feild either - they keep changing the requirements. Some agents have 30 & 3 others have 40 & 4 and then they bring it back down to 30 & 3, that's why they don't like agents talking to each other and the DM gets so mad when they do. It makes it harder for them to cover their tracks! If you really want to become a successful Insurance agent - be an Independent Agent, where you truly work for yourself and not an ugly corporation that only looks out for their own interest.
