Hi. I am Nick and I am a Senior Software Developer. My team and I have created a cloud based insurance management software for agents called Pakia. We started off small at the Greek market and now feel that it is finally the time to move up to the vast US Insurance market. We are looking for feedback from Insurance Agents to be early adaptors and help us pinpoint how we can make our software better for them. So, if you have the time go to following link and try it out. It's free. Thank you.

Some good information,
Still not crystal clear to me.

I am gonna keep reading.....

My Nephew wants to do this.
Buy a book
Get a chair in his father in laws real estate office and make 3 figures a year.
He is ambitious and hungry.

But I have many concerns.

He is not a rule follower, So what happens if he breaks the rules?

How fast does the book value drop? if he screws this up will the book hold its value for long? I imagine not.

Insurance Technology: Where does it need to go?

Hey guys,

I've frequented these forums for sometime now, and prior to a recent career change, I had sold life/health and property/casualty insurance for the 6 years prior (state farm sales rep and independent insurance agency owner after that). I'm well aware of the expertise a lot of you bring, and I know the variances in experience and age is all over the chart. That is why this is a perfect place to get a diversified opinion on what the industry needs, as far as technology goes.

Excel spreadsheets for marketing

I would like to know who uses excel speadsheets to send to companies with all their submissions. My agency insists all carriers are requiring these along with Acord apps. I have never, in all my years in this industry, heard of this practice. The Acords should be sufficient for schedules and all pertinent information. Is there something I am unaware of that carriers are now requiring this?

Help- Licensed Revoked 2 years, Will I get another ins job?

In March of 2016 I had my license revoked for 2 years as I made the blatant mistake of writing up an improper application for an advanced commission. At the end of March I can take the courses again and get my license. I have a clean background otherwise. Will it be seen? Will it be worth it or are the companies I apply to going to just turn me away because I made mistake?

Ohio life & health insurance licensure after felony
by Guest »
Guest

I presently live in Ohio. As a young adult in Florida I made poor decisions in addiction and have 3rd degree felonies related to possession of controlled substance over ten years old at the time of conviction. 20 years ago I have 1 felony conviction for uttering forged instrument that was for a check worth $150, also a result of addiction ( no excuse, just grateful I’m no longer that person). I served 1.5 years probation successfully. I am aware from your posts it varies by state as to what I am allowed to do. Am I able to be licensed as a life and health insurance agent in Ohio?
