JAKE DAVIS
What were you doing before Symmetry and what was your approximate income?
Different types of sales, but mostly office equipment. My best year was $150k, I had a great Manager and an easy schedule. As a sales job it was great, but the business wasn't mine and I was burning out.
What attracted you to Symmetry Financial Group?
Total burn out mixed with a desperation for something new, something outside the field I was in. I’d always wanted to start a business on my own but looking back, my self-belief was limited. I could never zero in on anything that I really liked. Previous sales jobs where hostile, with toxic environments, so I knew it couldn't just be another sales position. Symmetry gave me the opportunity to do something that added tremendous value to others. But not only that, it allowed me to start a real business, make a great income and most importantly, make an impact on others. The families I help get protected and I get to extend the wealth of opportunity to others that are looking for something similar. I was determined to never leave, no matter how long it took me to be successful at Symmetry.
How has your life changed since joining Symmetry?
I have grown so much as a person and developed as a leader of an amazing team. This is something I would have never been comfortable doing at any other company. This is all thanks to the self-development that is instilled in us by the incredible leaders of this great company. Something I was never encouraged to do at any other job. I continue to work at being the best version of myself each day. It’s impossible for me to lead others if I cannot know and lead myself. When I came to Symmetry, as many have said before, I was "broke and broken.” But now, we are more financially stable than ever and my family time overflows, which is super important to me. The important areas of my life are now "Symmetrical.”
What opportunities have you been able to do or provide because you started working with Symmetry Financial Group, that you likely would not have done or unable to in another career?
The opportunity to start an incredible business as opposed to my old "Hero to Zero" sales jobs. Pushing myself with a specific goal and timeline to become Agency Owner. Being able to leave my agency to my family if I pass away is huge to me. A legacy. I've had tons of jobs and tried to start several small businesses, none of which were successful AND fulfilling. Symmetry gives us the opportunity to have both success and, more importantly, deep fulfillment and satisfaction of great impact.
What advice do you have for a new agent?
Three things:
1. Keep SPECIFIC GOALS attached to a specific timeline right in front of you.
2. DON'T OVER THINK IT or reinvent any part of this amazing system. Symmetry has a 10 year track record. It works, if you do. "Plug in and Work!"
3. HELP OTHERS, like your upline and your team mates. "You can have everything in the world that you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want". ~Zig Ziglar
