For the past five years, I have been the "Director of First Impressions" and Marketing Coordinator for a life insurance brokerage company. This job did not require me to know the ins and outs of life insurance, which I was thankful for because it seemed very confusing.

Obviously working in a life insurance office for five years though you start to pick up on all the lingo and processes. Two weeks ago my CEO brought me into his office and asked if I would be willing to write all the technical content for our new start-up B2C online insurance company. It would allow me to continue to stay with the company even in Montana.

As you can imagine, I was so grateful, but scared beyond belief. I have two months to learn as much as I can about the ins and outs of life insurance before packing it up and working from home in another state.

I have a lot of prove and a lot of hard work and research ahead of me. I just finished my first article entitled "How Much Does Life Insurance Cost?" which took me hours upon hours to put together because there is so much to know about life insurance and there is not a lot of information online explaining it all without all the insurance-lingo. The article is now on my CEO's desk awaiting review. (Yikes! Get out the red pen!)

Now, I won't just be writing content. I also manage both companies' (the main and online) social media presence as well. I'll be plenty busy and have lots to learn on my journey to becoming a full-time life insurance writer.
