Training and an income opportunity for Venezuelans at home and abroad

A group of Venezuelan insurance entrepreneurs is offering Venezuelans who have had to leave their country an income opportunity through free online training in successfully selling health insurance. The training is delivered by Open Insurances, an insurance company led by Juan Carlos Fernández Alemán and Hazkel Puterman, Venezuelans with more than 25 years in the insurance business.

Open Insurances' training strategy is open to any professional, but is aimed particularly at those looking for a new source of income, tired of working office hours, unemployed with no opportunities in their country of origin, emigrants, recent university graduates seeking experience, women and men heading households who need more income, and older adults who want to earn extra money.

"With this opportunity, someone with experience in the sector can go from being an average insurance broker to being number one, while new agents can find work opportunities from anywhere in Latin America. That is possible because we share our knowledge and more than 25 years of experience," says Juan Carlos Fernández Alemán of Open Insurances.

Open Insurances' international traveller assistance plans, backed by the well known firm Omega Assist, are the perfect tool for entering this competitive and lucrative industry. They are plans designed for Latin American families who want to travel outside their home countries. The policies come in many forms: for a single trip, for several trips over a year, for students abroad and even for those who want to settle in another country for a long period.

"To those Venezuelans who have left for the United States, Latin America or Europe, Open Insurances offers the chance to work with an international, multiplatform company that provides the training and resources to start a profitable business that is growing constantly," adds Hazkel Puterman, who has more than 30 years of experience in insurance and is co founder of Open Insurances and founder of HPuterman & Associates.

The portfolio is designed to provide health services for people between 18 and 85, including athletes, frequent and occasional travellers, business travellers, older adults, students, expectant parents, hikers and volunteers, among others.

Álvaro Sucre's experience shows how effective the training is: "I have been in the international health policy business for more than 22 years, but it was about 16 years ago that I began selling traveller policies and became one of the big sellers of this product. Open Insurances appeared three years ago with innovative products, understanding the customer's need and filling the gap others had not managed to fill. I am sure they will become the largest travel policy company in the world, and that is why I am part of that family."

The training also has a particular appeal: how easy it is to absorb the new knowledge. As Ricardo Espina, a business intermediary in Florida, puts it: "Open Insurances offers a very particular opportunity for people who have never had experience in the insurance world. The sales process for their travel plans is very easy to learn, no licence is required, they have very friendly technological support tools, and you can work from home with just a mobile phone, earning an income relatively simply."

The company's videos on the Open Insurances YouTube channel also carry all the information about the plans, as well as the keys to becoming a successful insurance broker.
