Miles
I live in Austin and I sell life insurance. Most of what you have seen from people in my job is a guy in a rented car telling you about a loophole, so here is the ordinary version.
01 — WHO
I would rather show you the maths out loud and let you decide, including the times the maths says buy nothing. That is the whole positioning and it is not a marketing line; it is the only way this works when the thing being sold is trust.
This page is short because three facts are missing and only Miles has them: his age, the year he was licensed, and the one that actually matters: the specific thing that put him in this job. Not a value, an event. "Someone in my family died and the money wasn't there" works. "I want to help families" is what every agent writes, and it is the reason a reader's guard is up before they arrive.
There is no photograph of Miles on this page because there is not one worth putting here yet. Everything that exists is a still pulled out of an Instagram story, and Instagram re-encodes those to roughly a tenth of what the phone originally recorded. A single real photo off the same phone would be worth more than the entire archive, and this space is held for it rather than filled with something soft.
02 — THE ARRANGEMENT
How I get paid
The insurance company pays me a commission if a policy I recommend gets issued. You do not pay me a fee, and I do not charge for a conversation.
That means I have an interest in you buying something, which is worth knowing while you read anything else I have written. It also means I am not paid at all if I tell you to keep your money, which happens, and which is the part of this arrangement I would want explained to me.
03 — THE LIMIT
Where I can work
Texas, for insurance. That is the whole list, and it is a real limit rather than a preference.
Recruiting is different. A licence limits who I can sell to, not who I can bring into the business. If you are somewhere else and you want to do this job, that conversation is open.
Ask me the awkward one
Whether you want to do this job or you are working out what cover you need, the first message is the same: tell me what is actually going on and I will tell you what I would do — including when the answer is that you should keep your money.
