They said that at the end of our first meeting and it confirmed that I was doing what I set out to do when I started.<br \/>\nMy own experience with the financial industry has been disappointing to say the least. From poor, we don&#8217;t care service at a bank that I was a client with since I opened my first savings account when I was 7 years old to a financial advisor that wouldn&#8217;t return my phone calls because I wasn&#8217;t a high net worth client.&#8221;<br \/>\nWhen I made the decision to jump into this career I wanted to be different, I wanted to help people and I wanted my clients to feel that I was doing what was best for them. That is why I became an Independent advisor, I don&#8217;t have sales quotas or a manager pushing me to sell products and I can piece together products and services from any company that will work together for my clients. I wanted the freedom to run my business how I wanted to, choose which clients to work with and the freedom to make recommendations to my clients that made sense for their situation not to just make a sale.<br \/>\nFrom my experinces dealing with poor advice, high pressure sales tactics (a story for another day) to indifference I formed my guide as to how I would operate my business.<br \/>\nMy goal was to make sure that potential clients felt that I was there for them and not me. When I help someone move into a better financial situation and make their family protected from one of life&#8217;s worst moments or help them understand personal finances better that is when I feel rewarded.<br \/>\nWhen I receive a compliment like that, I know I made the right choice in how I run my business and that I am doing something right.<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re shopping for life insurance and want to learn more about the right\u00a0 type of policy for you and your family, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/andrewwbradley.ca\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/AndrewWBradley.ca<\/a> or call\u00a0 613.286.6841.<\/p>\n<div id=\"article-resource\">\n<strong>Andrew W Bradley<\/strong> is a licensed Insurance Broker and Financial Services Advisor helping Orleans families since 2011.
