State Farm Team Member Vent: Story of My Life

That being said I do not fear the workload or the amount of work I have to do to create my funnel of customers but I’m two months in and I’m already feeling the pressure from my boss. I close at 7pm almost everyday he doesn’t force me to I just feel the need to do my best everyday but it just doesn’t change anything. I love the job and what it entails I just genuinely feel this guy doesn’t have the right structure for team members training.

The training is very scattered and I have few sources as guides to genuinely help me. We do not have leads coming in because my boss doesn’t pay for leads and just wants me to keep calling prospects from 3 years ago.

Again, I don’t mind it but it’s hurting his business and my commission. Why can’t he just buy leads?

Also, how long will it take me to get in the flow of all of things without me having daily migraines? Being that my training is all over the place. I’ve only sold 16k in premiums and next week will make it my second month. Is this good or bad?

I already have plans to look elsewhere for leads as my boss just won’t buy leads and I can’t even force him. I just wish he was more patient and understanding that he actually doesn’t have a good structure to help me succeed and now I need to figure it out of which I don’t mind but his patience is key right now.

Am I overthinking?
