The inside perspective on being a Guardian financial professional

Deciding whether to take the leap to start your own business can be a challenge. While the rewards of starting your own endeavor can be high, so can the risks. Becoming a Guardian financial professional, however, isn’t your typical entrepreneurial career.

The breadth and depth of training opportunities and resources from Guardian, helps provide a powerful edge. So, while you’re in business for yourself, you have a local and national network of support to lean on as you build your practice.

Take charge of your success

As a Guardian financial professional, you’ll have incredible autonomy and be responsible for your own success — and your own reward. However, you don’t have to go it alone. You’ll have resources available to you such as award-winning training,¹ client marketing and planning tools, and a supportive community of fellow professionals that help lift one another up.

Align your career with your values

Though success as a financial professional demands commitment and persistency, the benefits of a flexible schedule allow you to put in the work when you want — so you can make time for the things you value in your personal life, like family, exercise or volunteering.

Many Guardian financial professionals also find that their work life is aligned with their personal values, since they can determine how they run their business and make a real impact in the financial lives of those they serve.

Have a go-getter attitude

As an entrepreneur, nobody is dictating your daily schedule and making sure you’re putting in the hours you need to in order to achieve success. You are your own manager — and you’ll find that it can help to be a demanding one.

The financial professional opportunity at Guardian allows you to fulfill your own version of success. Learn more about the training, solutions, and resources Guardian provides to support your entrepreneurial effort or apply now to join one of our local firms.
