I sold for SHC for 4 months, then recruited for 6 more. If you are interviewing, remember a few things about this "opportunity":
1) Know your cost - gas (I drove 500 miles per week), $35 motel rooms three nights per week, licensing, faxing your sales to corporate, fast food, internet in motels, oil changes, possibly a laptop computer, etc...
2) I NEVER saw a salesman sell more than 7 policies in one week. Most people sold about 4 policies, then half of those CANCELED within a couple days. That means NO sale and NO commission. After YOUR weekly cost= poor salesman
3) I worked 70-75 hours per week selling policies. I averaged $4 per hour (take home).
4) Recruiting paid much much more. $400 per week. Hahahaha. Needless to say, I was broke broke broke. I believed the promises, promises, promises.
My wife and I can't talk about this time in our lives without saying, "HOW STUPID ARE WE TO BELIEVE THEIR LIES?" or "Why did we believe it for so long?" The money is NOT there. Trust me.
