The experience I gather is that unless you are taking on viable book of business or have high-risk service members to sell insurance to it will be difficult to handle. They will pay to license you and give you training that’s value but helps to have military background either be a prior high enlisted or officer.

Extremely limited list of products and services available, and most of your potential clients with be active duty or retired military. Better off going with a full service broker dealer with a full suite of products. You can still focus on military clientele if you want to, but this opens up the door for significantly more opportunities for business.
