    I was wondering what the difference is between working as a tied agent for an insurance company against working in an insurance brokerage. Now i know that as a tied agent you are selling only one companies products. I have spoken to a few few people i know who work as tied agents and they have to organise there own appointments through cold calling, have to pay their own expenses and only earn a commission so basically they are self employed. I would imagine in a brokerage i would that there would be a salary involved aswell as expenses etc.
    I may have an opportunity to work in either of these areas and would like to know if anyone here has any insight as to which would be the better of the two to persue as a career.

    cheers
