TRUE or FALSE? Do YOU Know This Simple Golden Nugget?

Is this true or false?

You can get paid OVER AND OVER AGAIN (recurring income)
by promoting auto insurance on Commission Junction.

I hear folks say selling services that people NEED
(like services that require people to keep purchasing
every month) like auto insurance, hosting, etc. is good because
you get paid every month on that customer.

Is this true?!

Because I can NOT find anything like this on Comission Junction.

Yes, I see auto insurance and other things that people need
to keep paying for every month listed on CJ, but when I
look at how you get paid as an affiliate, I see NO MENTION
of a recurring payment model.

Why is this?

Where can I find insurance programs (or any other recurring
service that people need) that pay affiliates over and over
again on the same client?

I would really appreciate ANY type of input on this.

I guess commission junction must not do this - if you look at "icontact's" affiliate program their commission junction one is a lump sum whilst their in-house one is 25% recurring. I can't see a reason for doing this if commission junction offered recurring options.

In most states in the US, you actually need to be licensed to sell insurance. If they paid commissions to you, it would make you an actual agent or broker and would present all sorts of nasty legal issues if you did not have the proper licensing for whatever state you lived in ... and you have to be individually licensed in each state you sell insurance in. (I had to carry licenses for both California and Nevada when I worked for Colonial Penn)

Any other programs that have recurring commissions aside as I do not know ... but with any types of brokerage or insurance offerings, I could see how this would cause major legal issues for them.

Just my two cents
