Primerica provides financial services aimed at middle-income households in North America. The company offers a variety of products, including term life insurance, mutual funds, and annuities. Its unique approach involves a multi-level marketing model, where independent representatives sell these financial products and recruit new members. Representatives earn commissions on their sales and a share of the sales made by those they recruit, creating a network that helps distribute products widely while keeping overhead costs low. Unlike traditional financial service companies, Primerica relies on this network of representatives to build a scalable sales force. The goal of Primerica is to empower families to achieve financial independence through accessible financial solutions.
