Arias Agencies

Arias Jax recruited me for an agent position. I have 20+ years in very competitive industries Biotech being the most focused.  The managers are very young and inexperienced and have little management experience. There was no directed plan to guide you through getting the License. I had a ten minute conversation with one of the managers. He signed me up for the state exam. I have not sold insurance before but have much experience in healthcare insurance. When I called with a question, no one was available. They do not return your call. As an 1099 agent, they do not invest in you. You pay for the exam. They do not appear invested in helping you through the process if you are new. It sounds like they want you to memorize a canned script. I have been there with pharma sales. Successful sales occurs through building trust and relationships. And you have to know your products and do what you say you will do. No one mentors you through the process. I have always been a proven self starter. But, if you are new to the industry, I would not go with this company. I doubt if you can depend on them for other support to pull sales through--with providing you with essential tools needed to succeed e.g. paperwork, etc. I walked before I wasted more time with them. When the manager explained their "necessary canned pitch", I immediately had the feeling it was a micromanage situation. And as 1099, you are your own boss. I have always been in the top ten. But I did not get there without sincerity and listening skills. No one wants to buy anything from a robot. I buy my own life insurance from friends I trust. 

Arias Agencies is a life-changing opportunity for the right person. It comes with many challenges as does every position. The difference at AA is you have unlimited earning potential, tons of room for promotions and advancement, and what you do truly makes a difference in the lives of the families you serve. Respectfully, it is not for everyone. It is not the type of position for lazy, unmotivated people who think their employer owes them a paycheck just for showing up and being present. Negative people, blamers, and people who always look for the easy way out fail quickly because it requires you to work hard, accept responsibility for your own results, and be accountable for yourself.  Most people avoid positions like that because it exposes individuals who hide behind excuses and blame their boss for their shortcomings.  If you put in a solid day’s work, listen to your supervisors and allow yourself to be taught and coached, and think long term, you’re going to make a very solid living for your family. No, it’s not perfect, it has its pros and cons as every organization does. No company is perfect, and of course no supervisor or boss is perfect. At the end of the day, if you want to accomplish anything great in life it comes with some hard work, dedication, and sacrifice along the way.

They hire you by saying they're needing "consultants" or "reps" and tell you you'll meet with union workers. You then get put in a room where you make your $150 payment for online classes, and then when you pass, you have the costs of your test, fingerprints, applying for license, etc....surprise! Then you started and get assigned with a trainer....and I they run and area 2+ hours from you, you're driving all over the sun for unpaid training for weeks. You'll be either not told at all about that, or told you'll get paid and then not....or get paid and have tour manager tell you they did it "out of their pocket as a courtesy" or that they "didnt have to". Office days are spent making 100 phone calls in a room with about 30 other people making calls on top of you and your workspace being a tiny table on top of each other. Offices blast music like you're in the club and people swear and talk loudly while you're trying to work. If you have a family, forget it. If you make a mistake, you'll get someone jumping down your throat. When you get so anxious that you start trying to defend yourself, they'll get mad. It would be a good job for anyone self-driven, but the people and atmosphere make it more challenging than it should be, and some of the managers are abrasive, impatient and rude.

The interview and the meeting had with one of their managing agents made the company sound so good. Said no cold calls the numbers seemed very good for only a few sales. And said the training was paid. They didn't pay me anything. That these leads are barely not cold leads. They push referral sales like crazy as well as recruiting referrals almost MLM scheme bad. And you have to be great lier to work for them as you don't come out and say your selling insurance until your halfway through a presentation. My personal training class was bad trainers we re late or skipped out on classes or me and I didn't see any pay for it..... If it works for you more power to you but I feel my reputation would have gone down if I completed the training and started working. Major demands on you to meet numbers of calls and presentations. Hours like 8am to 9pm so you have no life as well. When you should be able to set your own schedule for this kind of sketchy job. Training was very delayed by about a month for me and then it didn't start on Monday like I was told it started Wednesday

If you truly believe in life insurance with ALL your heart, this job CAN make you decent money. However, in order to do this, you will often be working evenings and weekends which wipes away your personal life completely. If you don’t have a spouse or kids, this would be a great job. You have to invest a lot into the company before you even make a single dollar. Do not be fooled by the company video or interview, it is an elaborate half-truth. The pay is entirely commission and the leads are COLD. Company conventions are for upper management and few top earners. You need 3 strokes of luck to make a sale. You need our leads to answer the phone and even more to keep them on the phone to explain why you’re calling them, then you need them to actually show up to a virtual appointment in which 50% will not. Not to mention, the company is a PS. They will not stop nagging you about recruiting people, and unfortunately that’s a large determinant in getting promoted.

I have worked here since 2014 and all I can say is I wouldn’t want to work anywhere else.  I have tried many other jobs in the past and none have been as fun and rewarding as Arias Agencies. Working here has not only provided me with a second chance at life but also provided me with a career and a way to secure my family’s future for years even after I’m gone. The office atmosphere is the most laid back and fun environment of any place I’ve been. There can be some setbacks along the journey for sure but for those who can outwork the others and stay postitve, this can be the best career you’ll ever come across. The pay is good and the hours are flexible and the people are great as well. All I can say is I wish I would’ve found this place a lot sooner, but the great thing is that it’s never to late to start your career here at Arias Agencies. Everyone comes in at the same level. It’s  just about who wants it the most and that’s the part I love about it.

The Arias Agencies is a phenomenal place to work if you have a great attitude, work ethic and competitiveness. The pay is extremely lucrative, but what most people don't understand is that a $100,000/yr job requires a $100,000 worth of work. The culture is phenomenal for an entrepreneur/millennial/someone looking to start their own business with residual income. There is a certain level of self motivation required and if you don't work then you don't get paid. Management is extremely helpful and motivating and the culture makes being a part of the team so worth it. 

I've always been the type of person who wants to get paid for the amount of work I do. Nothing is more frustrating than getting paid the same as someone who does half the work as you do. The Arias Agencies is definitely a perfect fit for those that feel the same way

The environment here at American Income Life allows employees to function as individuals. What makes Arias Agencies different from other organizations is how the company motivates and educates each other. This directly affects professional growth and allows overall success as a team. This type of environment sets goals as a team and allows employees to work together in smaller groups to meet and accomplish the responsibilities one needs for overall success in and outside of the workplace. 

American Income Life is focused on working together, employees hold themselves accountable for the quality of their work. In this line of work, failure is unacceptable. If you are a hard worker and goal oriented, this company will reward you with amazing opportunities.

Arias Agencies is famous for its workplace culture, but the opportunity is unlimited, as famously quoted by American Income Life. Yes, the turn-over rate is high! Yes, we recruit people who seem to have a mindset of a business-athlete! And yes, your up-line will make an additional amount, usually less than 5%, of what you make. The work is hard, and many people prefer the hourly wage because your work ethic reflects your income. If you are small thinker, and are not willing to put in some extra effort, your time at Arias Agencies will more than likely be short-lived. The opportunity to earn residual income, lead and teach others, and help families is, without a doubt, larger than any other company. This business has forever changed my life and allowed me to change the lives of others as well. 

This is the first place I've ever worked where I feel an actual sense of purpose and find myself excited to get up and go to work. The leadership team is constantly spending time helping us grow personally and professionally. There's such a genuine focus on helping everyone grow and improve in all areas of life. You just don't find a management team that truly spends their time growing themselves so they can pour into their people. It's just not something you see, ever.  You genuinely find that here. The money is great although it's not a walk in the park. You have to hustle and do the work if you really wan't to excel. I've seen 20-24 year olds make $100k+ in their first year which still blows my mind. This company has changed my life in so many ways and I walked in with no experience. 0. All I started with was an open mind and laser sharp focus.
