Anonymous Poll: What is your net income after biz expenses ?

[rizzle]

Why is this interesting?

as i plan to begin full time this year, as a result, it would be of 'interest' to me to see what percentage bracket is earning what i would be aiming to earn.


I also found it interesting to see the lower numbers the poll is already showing.
I'm not sure the objective of the poll . so whatever.

Thanks for the feedback! I now made the first category 0-25.

I thought you were getting paid a little more than that...as long as you're happy in your job, that's important.

this would be interesting if for only full time.
or is it presumed it's full time only?

Very few independent agents work full time.

BLS says average income for insurance agents is $48K.

Bill :-) The original post had 10-25 but some people suggested that I make the category say "0-25" instead....I did take this poll but as it's anonymous, I won't disclose what bracket I fall into!

I was sure you knew that I was making a play on words, but it's good that you clarified for some.

Looking at the way the poll is shaping up, it seems to me that the $50k per year range is where most agents are getting "stuck" and that's the point you need to figure out how to push past. It's encouraging that the single most voted for category is $175k plus.

Unless of course you're all fibbers...

If you have money to market yourself then you make big money. Spend 50,000 on marketing and make 450,000. Simple NO??? Problem is where to come up with the 50k to prime the pump! This is why 90% of agents are doing something else in 5 years. If you stick it out and reinvest in your business it will happen just be ready to suffer until you get it worked out. Big income awaits you if you can persevere!
