Focused on Success

He dreamed of being a superstar athlete. He longed for the fat paycheck and the adoring crowds. Brett Burks wanted a lifestyle. He just didn’t know how to get it.

After graduating from college, Brett spent the next six months trying to figure out how he could have the lifestyle he wanted without having to work for someone else. He decided to come up with a plan to make that dream come true.

In 2003, he joined Primerica part-time and planned to make commissions from refinancings only.¹ Four days after he joined the business, he went to Primerica’s convention. He sat among tens of thousands of other representatives and finally saw the "big picture."

Brett realized that Primerica helps families by teaching them how money works. It was more than just refinancing: Primerica helps families take control of their debt, build retirement savings and get the right kind of affordable insurance. After seeing all that Primerica offers, he knew that Primerica was just the vehicle he was looking for. He could work on his own terms and in his own time and work toward living the life he’d dreamed.

"This is the best business opportunity in the world," he smiles. "Primerica has a proven system in place and all you have to do is follow it. Plus," Brett adds, "you have the ability to reap the benefits of trips, recognition and compensation while you grow your business. Primerica supports your dreams and motivates you to win."

"We know that as we stay focused we will reap the benefits of a partnership that gets in the trenches together. It is a wonderful ride."

Andrea agrees. "When I first learned about Primerica I realized it offered practical products everybody needs," says the former graphic designer. "I had no doubt it would be lucrative part-time but I also understood that long term it will be the opportunity of a lifetime to build a business within a business."

She also loves partnering with Brett to build their Primerica team. "Brett calls the play and I help run it," she says and smiles. "My goal is to be his assistant coach. I’m here to help our team just as he would. I have stepped out of my comfort zone to become a great partner and help build our business.

"As partners we must take advantage of being a role model. We must be an example for our teams to follow," Andrea says. "We need to work together to build distribution. We know that as we stay focused we will reap the benefits of a partnership that gets in the trenches together. It is a wonderful ride."

"Andrea has added so much to our business," Brett enthuses. "She was the missing link in every aspect of the business. One of the true pleasant surprises I have come to find is how much fun and enjoyment I can have working alongside my spouse. We share the same goals and dreams of achieving the same things, and we’ve made leaps and bounds toward our goal of financial independence."

"We know that as we stay focused we will reap the benefits of a partnership that gets in the trenches together. It is a wonderful ride."

"Primerica has a proven system in place and all you have to do is follow it. Plus, you reap the benefits of trips, recognition and compensation while you grow your business. Primerica supports your dreams and motivates you to win."
