Start‑Up Costs
As a business owner, you will be responsible for your time, travel, food, and refreshments for hospital “lunch and learn” sessions, as well as any marketing materials you choose to purchase. Expect to invest approximately $1,000 per month during the first year. There are no franchise fees and no requirement for a physical office.
Long‑Term Revenue Model
The model compensates you directly for the work you put in. It is commission‑based with a monthly residual component. Each new policy activated in your exclusive region generates a $10 commission, and you receive ongoing residual income for all active policies, with an average policy lifespan of over 73 months. This structure offers the potential for uncapped income and long‑term passive earnings.
