Business outlook
Pros
Flexibility of being an independent agent is great for you & your family. Brand recognition of State Farm is good. Operations people are very dedicated. Suppport for sales and services is great.
Cons
New contract = the elephant in the room that management refuses to talk about. 80% of agents on the new contract are VERY dissatified. VPA's & AFE's refuse to talk about it. If you come from outside State Farm as an agent, expect a small assignment of policies. Don't be suprised when the guy/girl from the Regional Office get's an agency with 500 - 1000 more policies to start than you did. Revenue projections are not anywhere near what was presented.
