So I started working with this union based insurance company (We still sell policies to people who arent with a union, but our client base is mostly union and where we get our leads from) and now that I see how the company works it feels very bait and switch.
I essentially call people saying "Hey, Im calling about the no cost child safe kits that you had requested" or
"Im calling about the no cost $x,000 AD&D benefit your union has setup for you at no cost"
Then I get infront of them, small talk, and work life insurance in. But 80% of the time, they arent aware Im coming over to talk about this stuff.
This also ends up with people thinking we're a fake company, or a telemarketing scam. They also have to get the AD&D renewed yearly. So when I got to this guys house he already knew what I was there to talk about.
I dont want to join a company where I have to go and seek out my clients myself, but at least a company that has a system setup for me to get some leads and go from there.
The company itself and the workspace environment is actually really great, but its just the way they go about getting sales.
