I am looking for experiences with other Sales Agents in P&C insurance with other companies. I am looking for something that has health dental and vision insurance (preferably day one), STD and LTD (not required but preferred), flexible schedule, good amount of PTO (right now I have 42 days including holidays and volunteer time). Good salary or a decent base pay plus commission.. What are your experiences where you work and what’s the companies culture?

What state do you live and work in? What type of P & C do you sell now (personal lines? commercial?)

I work and living in Texas. P&C personal lines.

Depends—- hard to speak on exact carriers but in general you’re likely to get more benefits and PTO if you work directly for a carrier, but likely more pay and flexibility if you work for a local agency. Trade offs unfortunately.
Obviously larger local agencies (ie large independents vs captives) are going to give you a little bit more opportunity and benefits traditionally so sometimes a good mix of both.

Any craft beer brewers here?

In the last two year I’ve gotten more and more into alcohol free beer. The selection in my country (Europe) is still small and mainly driven by the big brands (e.g. Heineken). My idea is to start my own small brewery which only produces alcohol free beer as a bit of a pendant to the booming local craft beer industry. Any thoughts on that idea or someone who has experience in the market?
