Aflac

[The KSB]

Does anyone have any experience with AFLAC. I've been offered a position selling it. Everything seems to be on the up and up. It seems like a really good product, once I looked into it I can really see the value of it.

Anyhow, if anyone has had any experience with the company good or bad I'd like to hear it.

FWIW, I just signed up for a couple of the policies and I don't usually sign up for anything. The company and its executives are hugely respected down here, being based in the other Columbus.

Mili has a point.

Great marketing makes the product easier to sell.

If you are going to sell insurance or that type of product sell to companies not to individuals.

The Yogi Berra one is the best.

I personally know nothing about it but several of my co-workers are always singing their praises.

I attended an insurance licensing seminar quite a while ago, and over half the class was made up of future employees of aflac. The kids weren't the best or the brightest, but the company seems to be doing well, so my guess is if you have a head on your shoulders you could probably go places there. Having said that, really check into what you're going to be doing there. Most of that stuff is simply cold-calling, and you will most likely have a "quota" you have to meet in terms of appointment's set, and/or sales made. If you're paid on straight commission, that could be a lot harder than it sounds.

Aflac Inc. said Monday it has fired Gilbert Gottfried, the abrasive voice of the insurer's quacking duck in the U.S., after the comedian posted a string of mocking jokes about the earthquake and tsunami in Japan on Twitter over the weekend.

Who would've thought a duck could tweet itself to death?
