About the Company

Primerica

MLM-based distributor of insurance and investments

Primerica provides financial services through a network of independent representatives who sell term life insurance, mutual funds, annuities, and other financial products to mainly middle-income households in North America. The product system works by representatives earning commissions on their own sales and a percentage of the sales made by people they recruit into their downline, creating a multi-level marketing structure that spreads the company’s sales force with relatively low overhead. The company differentiates itself by leveraging a large, commission-based, recruitment-driven network to reach a broad customer base, rather than relying on traditional salaried agents or large physical branches. Primerica's goal is to offer affordable financial solutions and protection to middle-income families while growing its distribution network to scale its sales force and revenue.
