Hey guys, I was chatting with someone about insurance careers, and I got curious. Do you happen to know how much insurance agents usually make in a month? I’ve heard it can vary quite a bit depending on the company and the agent’s experience, but I’m wondering what’s typical. Any insights?

Staying consistent is crucial for success in this industry. Building a strong pipeline is essential to earning a good income.
It’s important to note that policies can take time to be approved, which can be frustrating when waiting to receive payment. However, if you consistently generate business, you’ll eventually reach a point where policies are regularly issued, and you start seeing regular payments.
I’ve worked with some carriers that offer advanced commissions if the client pays for their policy at the time of application. However, I’ve also seen newer agents leave the life insurance sales field when a policy gets declined or the client changes their mind. This situation can result in charged-back commissions, and some agents may struggle to repay them.
Furthermore, you do receive a small renewal commission every year from your book of business. So, as your client base grows, your renewals also increase over time.
Curious about insurance agent salaries? It can vary, but on average they make around $4,650 a month.
The pay can be higher though, especially for experienced agents selling certain types of insurance (like life insurance).
Things that affect the salary include experience, location, and the company itself.
The earnings of insurance agents can vary significantly based on factors such as their experience, the type of insurance they sell, the company they work for, and their sales performance.
Generally, insurance agents may earn income through commissions, bonuses, and sometimes salary if they work for a larger agency or company.
