AWARD-WINNING FARMERS INSURANCE DISTRICT 58 IS SEEKING ENTREPRENEURS, SELF-STARTERS AND LEADERS TO JOIN IT'S TEAM

The successful team of Farmers Insurance District 58 is looking for entrepreneurial minded individuals to help us grow Farmers' $2.4 billion business in Southern California. Farmers has been insuring customers for over 86 years and offers a full package of insurance and financial services products. Having experienced significant growth in the last few years, we are ready to expand on our success.

LIVE LIFE ON YOUR TERMS. Being a Farmers small business owner gives you the freedom of running a business with the security of partnering with an industry leader. You’ll be your own boss with virtually unlimited earning potential, so your hard work benefits you – not someone else. You’ll get ongoing commissions for every active policy you close, so your income builds as you build your business. That’s an upside you may find missing from other opportunities.

LIFETIME CUSTOMERS ARE SMART BUSINESS. As a Farmers small business owner, you can provide information as your customers make sound decisions about coverage at every stage of their lives. And, because Farmers also provides Financial Services, you can give customers options as they work to achieve their dreams and strengthen their communities. It’s about so much more than helping customers protect their hard-earned assets – it’s about being a leader and being the one customers turn to, time and time again.

GET SUPPORT AT EVERY TURN. With Farmers, you’ll be in business for yourself, but you won’t go it alone. By joining the award-winning Farmers District 58 team, you’ll:

• LEARN FROM ONE FROM ONE OF FARMERS’ TOP DISTRICT MANAGERS, DAVID GAMBLE. David has successfully helped many individuals start their own agencies over the last 14 years. He consistently ranks as a top performer and has been recognized for his contributions by earning the Presidents Council award 3 times, an honor reserved for Farmers top 1% agents and district managers. David was also named the District Manager of the Year for the LA Region in 2017.
