    To be an independent life insurance agent, you need to have some savings to help you get started, and be able to live on little to no income for the first year. You will need to study and be tested for your license, then buy E&O insurance and get contracted with a number of companies. You should find a good General Agency to help you with this part. Then start prospecting for clients. Most life insurance agents contact people they know, but you can also set up a website and learn SEO to help you gain leads. It takes a lot of gumption, but if you are a financially savvy "people person", it can be a rewarding career to be an independent life insurance agent.
