The Insurance Business is a growing industry in the Philippines. Consequently, most of those who provide insurance are mothers… but why?
Well, there are reasons why many mothers choose to be a financial advisor:
1. Work-Life Balance
What is the reason as to why you are working? When it all comes down to purpose, most would say that it’s for their family. Being a mother is already a full time job that is why some would opt to give up their jobs to stay at home. While this gives joy and peace to some, other mothers would still prefer to work but doing so would compromise their time with their kids. By being a financial advisor, you can have the best of both worlds! You can control when you want to work and which clients you want to deal with.
Reminder: Spending time with your family should not be a luxury! In this industry that is already a given.
2. Hard work = Success?
Mothers are hard workers. Now, I’m sure that you’ve all heard that working hard is equivalent to a job well done, but for those of you who have had different occupations in the work force, you know that this is not always true. That means that you could be working hard only for your output to be treated as average or worse. You feel like the effort, time, and brainpower that you have invested and exhausted was just not worth what you are getting. However, by being a financial advisor, you will be compensated for every little effort that you have given. With this, hard work= more income, free local/international travels, and more time for your family. So if that’s your idea of success, then yes, hard work is definitely equal to success in this industry!
Financial Advisor Circle Formula:
Hard work= Success (Time + Free Travel, Income)
3. You are Qualified!
The essence of being a mother is subjective. However, most would agree that it means:
Having to provide love, teaching their kids knowledge that is needed for adulthood, and supporting their kids’ hopes and dreams.
To achieve these, a mother may choose to work, but what does being a mother had to do with being a financial advisor? Well in the eyes of the financial advisor, their role just switches from “kids” to “clients” whenever they are on the job.
Let’s see: having to provide love to their clients, teaching their clients financial knowledge that is needed for adulthood, and supporting their clients’ hopes and dreams.
Being a financial advisor gives you the opportunity to extend your love in your family to other families. Educating your clients on how to better manage their financial resources and to maximize its capacity to be able to reach their dreams does this.
You insure their lives for a better future like what you already do at home to your kids. So, eliminate those doubts that tell you that you cannot do it, because you are already doing it anyway.
