John Klich has been a financial representative since 1999. He joined Northwestern Mutual Financial Network right off the campus of the University of Illinois. John never thought he would end up in financial services, but after looking at several other careers and companies, this path appealed to John the most. He offers his comments on the career:
"Having meaningful professional relationships with my clients and learning new things through their experiences on a daily basis has been the greatest reward. It is a great feeling knowing that I really make a difference in their lives."
"I started at age 22 in a predominantly single marketplace. Discussing financial goals and the importance of saving with my peers was both challenging and frustrating."
"Trying to impress upon them the need to save and be responsible with their money was not easy. However, overcoming the challenges and learning how to effectively communicate my message while realizing my clients' needs and desires has made me a better representative."
"Some of the relationships I developed in that time have grown into some of my closest friendships. I would not trade those formative years in the business for anything."
"I have become more patient and become a better listener. I have learned how to run a business through much trial-and-error in addition to managing the daily operation without losing sight of the big picture."
"Above all, I have learned a great deal through the conversations, experiences and feedback of my clients. They share with me some of their deepest thoughts, and that has truly enriched who I am today."
John has been a member of the Million Dollar Round Table from 2005 - 2007. It is an elite organization of life insurance professionals throughout the world. He was awarded the Emmett Steele Rookie of the Year award in the Hoopis Financial Group and has finished in the Top 100 in new client production company-wide three times.
