We work with a variety to provide a wide range of products/services. Some of our carriers are: Midland, National Life Group, North American, Allianz, Security Benefit, Nationwide to name a few. We don’t spread ourselves to thin and keep our primary carrier list to around 4-5.
a. Life Insurance and Annuities
b. We have internal referral partners for debt, medicare, small business owner services.
No you do not need one. We do have an advisory side of our business for people that want to go into the advisory side of the business. Advisors create residual income through AUM (Assets Under Management).
Yes, this is a builders model and with access to over 4,000 school districts nationwide we need help.
We cover the first lunch and Appreciation Financial has an Activity Incentive Program pays people in their first six months. Think of it as paid training and that can add an extra $600-$1,000 a month on top of commissions.
Yes. We have agents that work virtually, in-person, and some do both.

Yes, you can start part-time if you have at least 2 days per week you can dedicate in the field during school working hours. Many people do this so they can still continue to earn income from their current job while they build up this side of the business to alleviate potential financial strain during the first 90 days.
Yes. We specialize in helping teachers and educators but you can absolutely help clients outside of this.
After one is vested they own their own book and renewals. This occurs once someone has cash flowed $500,000 (cumulatively over time)
a. We are not captive in the sense that if you have OBA (outside business activities) we are fine with that as long as they don’t interfere or are interjected into our business. We have strict solicitation guidelines with our school districts for our specific products and services so someone who might be selling real estate cannot be doing that or offering such services on school campus.
b. If someone is working with us it is expected they are going to do all of their annuities, life insurance, and advisory business with us as well.
c. If as a part of a transitional plan someone is going to work for example mortgage protection, final expense, or medicare - we are fine with that as long as it's disclosed and again those services don’t mix into what we do.
a. If that is how you look at it then yes we are absolutely - let me clarify.
b. We have proprietary relationships, training, and resources specific to a niche market we’ve worked and created for over 20 years. School District and the relationships are our top priority and we made one to many mistakes bringing the wrong people in that have created problems to the point where we lost a district which represents hundreds if not millions of lost future revenue and harming our brand and credibility. So we do our best to protect this for the good people that have built amazing businesses with us serving the needs of educators.
c. After 25 years of being in this business I have yet to see one person successful who is doing multiple things, working multiple programs, and chasing this illusionary myth of having multiple side hustles to be wealthy. We have no interest in entraining that kind of relationship…and let’s be honest - how has that been working out for you 🙂
We do our best to be transparent about the good, bad or indifferent. Ultimately we understand you are trying to figure out Appreciation Financial and team APEX will be the right team and home to build the business of your dreams and we are trying to figure out if you are the right fit for us and align with our values and culture.
We can figure these things out together through open and honest communication. I hope this FAQ has answered all of your questions. If you have anymore, we encourage you to write them down and discuss them with us when we speak.
