Is this a good offer?
I’m a 28M and I got offered a position as an insurance broker. Long story short I got my 2-20 License and got offered a job from guy that’s I’ve become really close with. He has been running his own agency in another state since 2004 and wants to open another agency in the state I live in. He asked me to be the guy to run it, I will be the only guy in the office until the agency grows and we need to bring on more people. I have no prior insurance or sales experience but him and I have a good relationship and he’s told me many times I’m a hard worker and I hustle (I currently do valet and work at a place he visits very often). He said salary is 40k a year and I get 50% on new business and 25% on renewal. Is this a great opportunity or too good to be true? It sounds amazing and I’ve been looking for a career change into sales. What would you guys do if you were in my shoes?
