The Alabama Market for Insurance Agents
Alabama is a strong Southeast final expense market with a senior population over 950,000. The Price Group writes business across the state, with most agent activity concentrated in Birmingham, Huntsville, Mobile, and Montgomery. Because TPG runs a fully remote, telesales-first model, Alabama agents work from home and serve every county on the map, not just their local metro. Final expense is the entry product most Alabama agents start with because lead flow is consistent and average premium fits a wide range of senior budgets, and term, whole life, and Medicare Supplement cross-sells follow naturally as the book matures.

Which Alabama license should I get for selling final expense and term life?
The Alabama Life Producer (Life-Only) license is the minimum required to sell life insurance, including final expense and term/whole life.

TPG agents typically start Life-Only and add Health when they are ready.
