Agents that can profit from selling Mexican insurance
Agents mistakenly believe that Mexican agents are only those who live near the border to be able to sell Mexican insurance. While many Mexican insurance policies can still be purchased at the border, most policies are being bought by customers long before they travel to Mexico. Many of the best agents selling Mexican insurance are found in states that don’t even have a border with Mexico. Agents from states like Oregon, Washington and Colorado are responsible for a large portion of the Mexican ‘tourist auto insurance industry’ sales. You are disserviced if you cannot offer this product to potential clients or customers who travel to Mexico by being unable to sell it to them.
Commission potential
Agents who write policies are often offered commissions of between 20% and 30% by Mexico’s insurance MGAs. Agents who are not located near Mexico’s border tend to travel to Mexico more frequently than their clients, which can mean that they may have to travel for a longer time. This could be from several weeks or even months. A three-week Mexico insurance policy could easily generate a $200-$400 Premium, which would translate into a $60 to $120 Agency Commission. Even though you might not be able retire on this income, it would pay your office more than the electricity bill. Agents may choose to increase their commission by charging a broker fee. Remember that each policy takes approximately 10 minutes to issue, and almost no servicing is required once it has been issued.
