Boost your Bottom Line with the Premium Increase Program (PIP)
The Premium Increase Program (PIP) is designed to reward good client service. When you take the time to check in with clients, conduct policy reviews and bolster their retirement preparedness with premium increases, you do good by your clients.
To reward the good that you do, each time you initiate a qualifying increase to an existing flexible premium annuity policy or initiate a qualifying lump-sum increase, you earn full commission on the increase as well as credits to National Life Group-sponsored conferences. The more you add to your existing flows, the more credits you earn.

Additional Tools & Resources are available on the Agent Portal.
