WHAT OUR AUTHORIZED AGENTS SAY

“It was kind of overwhelming when I first came over to Trinity as an Authorized Agent. I didn’t know what to expect and I was a little bit intimidated when I would talk on the phone with anyone from Corporate. But then I met Ms. Karen who put my mind at ease.

We would talk about any problems I was facing and she would help me find a way to solve them. Early on, Ms. Karen told me about the other people on the Agent Support Team and how they all get down to business. Soon enough, I was able to meet all of them over the phone. They are all so cool and down to earth but also take their roles seriously.

Finally, when we were able to meet in person at an Agent Conference in Arizona. They weren’t any different! They are the most caring and loving people. Their personalities matched exactly what I was used to hearing over the phone. A very awesome group of people that really want you to succeed in your business. They’re also good for a laugh; one of them called me by the wrong name but we won’t say who! It’s now a standing joke. The Agent Support Team is incredible. These ladies and gentlemen do their job and they do it with GREATNESS! I love all of them. They are so great to work with.”
