Insurance agents and brokers may be paid in several different ways. If you work for insurance companies you might be paid an annual salary, or you may be paid a base salary plus commission (a percentage of the money you bring into the company) or a performance bonus.
Independent agents and brokers typically work only on commission.
If you work on a full-time basis for a single company, you usually receive benefits such as extended health insurance, retirement plans, paid vacation and sick days.
