Williams says the growth in Primerica’s sales force is related to initiatives that were introduced in 2012. He says the company introduced a new compensation system that is oriented to helping representatives get licensed and become more productive earlier in their careers.
“We also are focused on sales force incentive programs,” Williams says. “Our business is very much incentive-driven, where in order to qualify for trips and other incentives, getting people licensed and productive is a core component.”
