I'm not sure if you're considering selling insurance, but reconsider selling ANYTHING if you're not a salses person.

I sold Avon and I sold Tupperware and made little to no money doing either. With gas prices the way they are, I won't be doing this type of work anytime in the near future. (Gotta run the stuff people purchased to them, or mail it, which will eat up all your "profits.")

I think that they mean that selling a luxury item that no one really needs is harder than offering something that people need. Also usually insurance stuff nowadays is done with the other people asking for the information first, not you doing the cold calling. I also could not do selling but I do a little ebay. So I do sell a little but I sell stuff people come looking for.
