Please fellow Nlers, help me out here, I've got a teaching job offer in a sec sch dou the pay is small (20k) and an insurance (Aiico) marketing Job here in Lagos. I hv no idea about d insurance job (not my field), dier remuneration, terms and conditions. Pls advice me on d insurance job, whether I should go for it or not with reasons, especially ppl with insurance marketing experience. Your contribution is highly appreciated. Thanks alot

Insurance marketing is strictly on commission basis only with d customers u get

If am to advice you i would tell you to go for Insurance marketing because it helps you to learn some communication skills,gives you some boldness to pass through interviews and exposes you to what life in the corporate world looks like,yes its on commission basis but you it gives u an opportunity of getting a better job.

I took this decision 4 yrs ago and today i work as Insurance officer for A FMCG company and things are much more better than its used to be,i know if i had taken the teaching job i would not have had the opportunity to earn up to what am earning presently,so think of the long run as teaching job is very limited and you should do it only if you have a passion for it.

The choice is yours at the end of the day,goodluck.

My man or woman,I will advace u stay wia u re,pending d tmy u get better offer,cos dis insurance stuf if u re nt in it bfore,it very dificut,bt I prefer for teaching dan insurance, cos dey will give u target,wen note dis,insuarance can't sack u bt u will sack ur self wen u re nt meet up wit target, wen d ball is in ur court. Best of God

Thanks for d contributions @all

please don't do aiico marketing, its crazy. i worked with them for 6 month and couldnt sell their product and beside most people in nigeria don't like insurance policy.But if it were to be royal excange or niger isurance, those once pay monthly salary and commission. Aiico insurance is strictly on commission.

Stay with your teaching job and seek for better offers.

If you're renting office space for your company, having your own business insurance policy is a must. Even though the property owner or landlord is responsible for having insurance on the physical building, business insurance helps protect belongings and mishaps that are your responsibility

Some businesses do not have business insurance, which can be detrimental to their operations. The right policy will protect you from disaster and help you keep your money and business running smoothly.
