Look towards internal wholesaler...it's not too competetive to get in and will often put you in the company HQ where you can meet more people.

Let me guess...you went to a state school and became an AXA/Primerica broker? Dude, read this site a bit, there's a whole world of jobs that you don't even know exist. Thing is, they're sweet gigs and tough to get, so you have to educate yourself and revise your expectations.

Take your book of business to
Take your book of business to a larger firm. They will pay benefits and all that good stuff. Once at a larger company, you can transition to other jobs within the company that are less sales oriented.
Example: PWM guys in my company have gone into compliance or branch administration. They sometimes get to keep their book, depending on the new job, and now have a salary and fixed hours, plus access to the corporate home office hierarchy. This way is somewhat tricky, but allows you to get the stability you desire without shitcanning your last few years of work completely...build on what you have to get where you want.
