Do I have to have previous sales or insurance experience?
No, previous sales experience or experience in the insurance industry is not required or necessary. In fact, a blank slate is sometimes the best for success, because of the training. All that is required is a positive attitude, desire to work as hard as needed, and the humbleness to learn from those that have been there.
In conjunction with Family Heritage, we have an outstanding training program. Beginning with a top notch sales academy program that takes place every week in either Nashville or Dallas, you will be put through an intensive training and development program designed to teach anyone how to do this job
After sales academy is finished you will begin a field training program with a field manager that will last as long as needed to properly develop the skills necessary to be successful. After that, we have group field training (we call them “Trainmores”) that are scheduled every four weeks so
you can learn from many different experienced leaders and share ideas.

There are two National Meetings a year that each sales professional is asked to attend and there are ten weeks spread out during the year that we encourage all to attend called “Trainmores” which are usually couple of hours from home. The purpose of these weeks is to take away everyday distraction and have focused weeks that reinforce and develop your sales and management skills and team building events.
