I worked as a licensed agent in Phoenix with NAA for a while until I went BROKE. Sorry.... but there are NO good NAA leads in Phoenix.
Because there are no NAA agents in Phoenix, NAA doesn't market in Phoenix. It's a business decision, and probably a smart one at that. Why waste money sending leads to Phoenix when there are no NAA agents in Phoenix? It's a no brainer, BUT... NAA should have the decency to tell it's prospective NAA agents in ARIZONA that there are no GOOD leads in Phoenix BEFORE the agent gets licensed and contracted. It's a moral thing. ARE YOU LISTENING NAA?
I don't know about how well other agents in the east are doing with NAA. I do know some agents are making over $1,000,000/yr, but they are the same top dogs, the same ones, week after week. NAA is an MLM business even though they won't admit it. The ones at the TOP of the chain are making money... and a TON of it. If I got involved with NAA 5 years ago, worked where they had leads, and had an enormous downline, I'd be making over $1,000,000 as well, BUT, with about 2,500 agents contracted with NAA, only a small hand full are making REAL money. It's a fact.
With the housing market CRASH, NAA has re-tooled its operation. Now their game is "Recruit, Recruit, Recruit, and send them all to the National convention at $800.00 per seat, plus sign them up for KIT marketing, the phone service, and all of the other bells & whistles that promise SUCCESS. It's a business decision.
Here's my $.02 worth. Do your due diligence. Search the web for everything that you can find out about NAA BEFORE you spend your time and money. REMEMBER: "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
Check to see what the Better Business Bureau has to say about NAA. I can tell you that as of this writing, the BBB's official statement about NAA is that NAA is NOT a BBB accredited business. Don't take my word for it. Check it out for yourself.
Secondly... You want to see and hear NAA HYPE? go to YouTube.com and listen to Andy Albright's HYPE on his 2007 National Convention. REMEMBER: "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
Lastly... know that they want you to RECRUIT, RECRUIT, RECRUIT. Ask yourself real hard: WHY do they want me to Recruit, Recruit, Recruit?
I'm not suggesting anything here... but use your head and do your homework folks! Listen to what other NAA agents are saying on this board, and ask yourself why the BBB states that NAA is NOT an accredited business!
Just use your head and put the pieces together for yourself. It's not all that hard to figure out what's going on.
Whatever decision you make, whoever you decide work for, I wish you all good luck!
