Georgia has made available for many years a separate Counselor license for agents to charge for recommendations, suggesting coverages, plans, etc. The downside was that the agent could charge a fee or earn commissions but not both.
Now they can do both, get paid commission and charge fees for counseling as long as they disclosed that information to the client in writing and have a Counselor's license.
The fees may be charged for Personal Lines and Commercial Lines.
I discovered this while creating a Georgia P&C Counselor Prelicensing Course. It has been approved (Course #69308).
The requirements are shown below.
The 557 page study manual with 308 multiple choice questions is available to download in English & Spanish.
