Pros

0. very recognizable brand--that's a given. 1. learn from client's experience (whether success/failure) 2. lots of recognition if you're hardworking. 3. provident funding (retirement) starts after two years. 4. can do this part-time while you have a full-time day job. lucrative side-job. 5. you really learn in-depth about insurances.

Cons

1. commission-based pay only. There can really be lean months if you don't close a sale. You're only as good as your last sale, a thing to consider if you go full time. 2. You become a public figure somewhat. You're image is always on-check by clients. 3. can offer to OFW clients ONLY while they're in the Philippines. Otherwise, it's a malpractice, and grounds for license cancellation. 4. Not for rejection-averse individuals. Sales career is hard enough, but if the thing you sell is intangible (like insurance policy), it become all the more difficult to sell.
