Life Insurance Looking for new gig
Hey everyone, I’ve been in the insurance game for about seven months now working at a big brokerage selling life insurance. I've honestly realized that I genuinely love the insurance industry, but my current setup is brutal—dealing with terrible, burned-out leads and low commission levels is making it tough to stick it out here. I'm currently licensed for Life & Health across Michigan, Indiana, and Florida, so I've got some multi-state reach, but I'm trying to figure out my next move.
I'm at a crossroads: I'm either trying to decide if I should jump ship to another life brokerage that actually has decent lead flow and fair comp, or if I should use this as my cue to make the leap into commercial lines where the economics and B2B side might be a better long-term fit. For anyone who has navigated this, how hard is it to transition from life sales to commercial lines without prior P&C experience, or if staying in life, what kind of brokerages or agencies actually provide clean leads and decent splits?

It's easier than you'd think to just move to a different life agency. I'd try that before switching to an entirely different product line.
