Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is Hard Roc Academy?
▼
Hard Roc Academy is a comprehensive business development platform where we train entrepreneurs to build successful financial services practices. We provide education, mentorship, lead systems, and ongoing support to help you create multiple income streams while serving families with essential financial products.
We focus on life insurance, retirement planning, and wealth-building strategies that most traditional advisors don't understand or offer.
Do I need experience in insurance or sales?
▼
No prior experience is required. We prefer to train people the right way from the beginning rather than having to break bad habits.
What we look for is:
Coachability and willingness to learn
Strong work ethic
Genuine desire to help others improve their financial situations
We provide all the training, systems, and support you need to succeed.
How much money can I realistically make?
▼
Income varies based on effort, skill development, and time invested. Here's what we typically see:
$3K-$10K
Monthly (First Year)
$100K+
Annual (Experienced)
$500K+
Top Producers
We provide multiple income streams: direct sales commissions, team building bonuses, and residual income from your client base. Your income is directly tied to the value you provide to families.
What's the time commitment required?
▼
Success requires treating this as a business, not a hobby. Most successful agents invest 20-40 hours weekly, especially in the beginning.
The good news:
Flexibility to work around your current schedule
Can start part-time while keeping your current job
Building an asset that can eventually provide passive income
Consistent daily activity is more important than long hours
What are the startup costs?
▼
Getting licensed and starting your practice requires a minimal investment compared to other business opportunities:
$199 - Bamboo platform fee
$40-$200 - State licensing exam fee (varies by state)
Training materials and initial marketing resources
Compared to franchises requiring $50,000-$500,000+, this is one of the lowest-cost, highest-potential business opportunities available.
Is this multi-level marketing (MLM)?
▼
No, this is a legitimate financial services practice. While you can build a team and earn from their production (like any business), the primary income comes from serving clients with essential financial products.
These are services everyone needs regardless of whether they join our business.
Objection Handling Guide
"I don't have time for another commitment."
▼
Rebuttal: I understand time is your most valuable asset, which is exactly why this opportunity makes sense. You're trading time for money at your current job with limited upside.
This allows you to build an asset that eventually works without you. Most of our successful agents started part-time while keeping their jobs.
Key Question: "Are you trading time for temporary income or investing time to build permanent wealth? We can start with just 10-15 hours weekly and scale as you see results."
"I'm not a salesperson."
▼
Rebuttal: Perfect! Neither was I when I started. The best financial advisors aren't "salespeople" - they're educators and problem solvers.
We're not selling products people don't need; we're providing solutions to problems everyone has:
Inadequate life insurance
Insufficient retirement savings
Tax-inefficient wealth building
Bottom Line: If you can have a conversation and genuinely care about helping others, you can succeed in this business.
"I don't know anyone who would buy insurance from me."
▼
Rebuttal: That's a common concern, but it's based on old-school thinking. We don't rely on your personal network or cold calling.
We provide:
Lead generation systems
Digital marketing strategies
Referral processes that connect you with people actively seeking our services
Remember: People buy from experts, not friends, and we'll position you as the expert in your market.
"What if I don't succeed?"
▼
Rebuttal: Failure is only possible if you quit or don't follow the system. We've helped hundreds of people build successful practices by following our proven process.
Success isn't guaranteed, but it's predictable when you combine the right activities with consistency over time.
Counter Question: "What's the cost of not trying? How will you feel in five years if you're still in the same financial position?"
Interactive Role-Play Scenarios
Scenario 1: The Skeptical Professional
Setup: You're speaking with a successful professional who's heard "opportunities" before and is naturally skeptical.
Prospect: "I've heard this kind of pitch before. How do I know this isn't just another get-rich-quick scheme?"
Your Response: "I appreciate your skepticism - it shows you're smart about business decisions. This isn't a get-rich-quick scheme; it's a get-rich-slow, sustainable business model. We're licensed financial professionals helping families with legitimate financial strategies. The difference is our approach and the advanced products we specialize in that most advisors don't understand."
Prospect: "But why would I leave my current career that's already paying me well?"
Your Response: "I'm not asking you to leave anything right now. Most of our successful agents started part-time. The question is: are you building wealth or just earning income? Your current job pays you well, but what happens when you can't or don't want to work anymore? This builds an asset that can eventually replace and exceed your current income."
Scenario 2: The Time-Strapped Parent
Setup: You're talking to a working parent who's interested but concerned about time commitments.
Prospect: "This sounds interesting, but I barely have time for my family as it is. When would I fit this in?"
Your Response: "I completely understand - family comes first, always. That's actually why this makes perfect sense for you. You're working hard now to provide for your family, but what if something happened to you? This isn't about taking time away from your family; it's about securing their future and eventually having MORE time with them."
Prospect: "But realistically, how many hours per week are we talking about?"
Your Response: "Most successful part-time agents start with 10-15 hours per week. That's 2-3 hours per weekday evening or weekend time. Think about it - you probably spend more time than that watching TV or scrolling social media. The question is: would you rather spend that time building your family's financial future?"
Scenario 3: The Analytical Decision Maker
Setup: You're dealing with someone who wants to analyze every detail before making decisions.
Prospect: "I need to see some concrete numbers. What exactly are the commission structures, and can you show me a detailed breakdown of potential earnings?"
Your Response: "I love that you're analytical - that's exactly the mindset that succeeds in this business. Let me break down the numbers for you. Our typical new agent writes $50,000-$100,000 in premium their first year. With our commission structure, that translates to $30,000-$60,000 in first-year income, plus renewal commissions."
Prospect: "What about the team-building aspect? How does that compensation work?"
Your Response: "Great question. When you help others succeed, you earn overrides on their production - typically 3-7% depending on your level. But here's the key: you only earn when they succeed, so it's in everyone's best interest to provide excellent training and support. It's not about recruiting; it's about duplicating success."
Scenario 4: The Relationship Objection
Setup: Someone who's worried about damaging relationships by "selling" to friends and family.
Prospect: "I don't want to be that person who's always trying to sell something to their friends and family."
Your Response: "I completely understand that concern, and honestly, I'd question your character if you weren't worried about that. The good news is, we don't build our business that way. We provide lead systems and marketing strategies that connect you with people who are actively looking for these solutions."
Prospect: "But don't I need to start somewhere? Won't I have to approach people I know initially?"
Your Response: "The only people I recommend approaching are those who you genuinely believe could benefit from what we offer - and only after you've experienced the value yourself. When you see how these strategies work for your own financial situation, you'll naturally want to share that with people you care about. But it comes from a place of helping, not selling."
