Paul Wilson: How did you get your start in the benefits industry?

Right after I graduated, I went to work as an administrative social worker, but there were many changes in our government and various programs at the time, so I began to think the future didn’t look bright in that area. I answered a call and was recruited into Farmers Insurance. I started my own agency and worked in life insurance but realized I didn’t want to be the person who hired and managed staff and paid the bills and all that. I really wanted to work with people and be on the front line. I was then recruited to our agency.
