With all the lawsuits and identity theft that happen in
today's society, more people are feeling the need for legal
protection. Prepaid legal offers packages for legal
services that are said to be more affordable than paying
the retainer fee for an attorney. At the company's website,
the packages are more clearly presented than the associate
compensation plan. This review attempts to give an
overview of what both the legal plans and the compensation
for sales associates involve.
There are two categories of coverage that the company
offers—identity theft protection plans and legal
service plans. The identity theft protection plan is
offered for a monthly fee of $9.95 or $12.95. The legal
service plans have a range of prices with family plans that
may be about $16 to $26 a month. There are other plans
offered for businesses and drivers. The benefits are
similar to an insurance plan offering access to legal
counsel should a person need it. When the plans do not
cover something, a 25% discount on legal services is
offered through participating lawyers.
There are opposite reports when it comes to people who have
bought the plans. Some say they have saved significant
amounts of money and benefited from the free consultations
included in the plans. Others are adamant that the monthly
fees are a waste of money because of all the issues that
are not covered. In the end, the services like drawing up a
will are the most commonly used and valued benefit, but
once this has been done, some argue that you might not be
likely to use the service again. On the other hand, there
are some whose circumstances may allow them to use it more
frequently, and these are the people who recommend buying
the prepaid plans.
Because you receive a commission ahead of time for each
membership you sell, if someone drops their membership, you
are charged for the number of months that went unfulfilled.
For those who continue selling Prepaid Legal plans there is
also a residual income option that kicks in after someone
renews their annual membership. During the 45-day training
period you become qualified after you make 5 membership
sales or recruit 3 people to join the sales program. After
this initial period, more sales are required if you still
want to qualify and move beyond the rank of an associate in
training.
In the end, whoever is selling these plans has the power to
inform or mislead those who buy the memberships. Hopefully
the company's incentives for renewals cause associates to
make clear what customers are getting so that they will be
happy enough to renew. This company is not the only one
offering these kinds of prepaid services. If you believe
you are likely to use them, it is worthwhile to check out
and compare what other options are available for buying and
selling these kinds of services.
