The path to becoming a Financial Professional begins with the Pre-Contract CDP Affiliate phase, during which you will study towards obtaining the required FINRA and resident state licenses, with the cost of fees and exam study materials from approved vendors covered by the Company. Upon successful completion of the Pre-Contract Affiliate phase, should you receive and accept an offer to commence

part-time employment as a CDP Contract Associate, compensation is initially expected to be $15/hour (or your city/state’s applicable minimum wage if higher than $15/hr). After successful completion of the CDP Contract Associate phase, you may receive an offer to become a full-time Financial Professional Associate (FPA), which is paid solely on a commission and bonus basis. FPAs regularly earn average compensation ranging from $50,000 – $75,000 in commissions and bonuses in their first full year. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable plans then in effect, eligible FPAs may enroll in a 401(k) plan, as well as participate in Company-sponsored medical, dental, vision, and basic life insurance plans for the FPA and the FPA’s eligible dependents, and may be eligible for paid leave.
