I know Buckvelvet is an insurance guy, anyone else? I am getting an offer tomorrow and 95% sure I am taking it. Going from construction equipment to Life, accident, and health. The only drawback I see is I can’t take an excavator home when I need one.

TUFF Business. What happens when you run out of friends and relatives? I won’t be selling to any friends and relatives. It is all business sales. 10 employees and up, concentration on school districts and municipalities. |

I wish you all the best Chummer!

I own an agency in MN. It’s a good business to have, but I’m in a small town, not much competition except State Farm and we usually compete well with them. Just keep in mind that businesses are not high on visitors right now. My buddy sells to small businesses and they won’t let him in the door now, with Covid.

I sell to business now and there is a little hesitation towards vendors but it isn’t to bad. I will have a two year guarantee so I can hopefully use the corona time to get up to speed. I sell value and relationship over price so it will certainly take some time. My wife has worked for this company for 6 years so I know all the internal people. My boss is a real cool dude and he is going to mentor me. |

Assured Partners is ultimately who I will answer to but I am working for a smaller agency within their tent. I will be dealing primarily with Excellus which about the only insurer left in NY. Their main focus is employee benefits to schools and municipalities. |

Good luck. I am not familiar with them, but being the only option is —a bonus!

Excellus is Blue Cross Blue Shield, California has Blue Cross & separately Blue Shield, other states call Blue Cross Blue Shield 'Anthem'.....Michigan just calls its BCBSM (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan), its nothing special just exuberantly expensive and the same as the rest of them. |
