Achieve Employee Perspectives

What a Typical Day Looks Like for a Unit Manager at Achieve

My day is centered on data-driven coaching and team alignment. Here is how I break it down: 

The Pulse 

I start with the DPR report, comparing my unit’s performance against the floor. I analyze yesterday’s stats to celebrate our wins and identify exactly which agents need my focus to move the needle today. 

The Blueprint

I move into strategic organization, mapping out my coaching schedule for the week. I also pull specific calls for calibration, ensuring I’ve selected the right “teachable moments” to help my team improve their conversion and empathy. 

Alignment

I join a daily huddle with my fellow unit managers. We sync on floor trends and share insights, ensuring my unit’s focus is perfectly aligned with our department’s broader goals. 

Execution

I spend the rest of my day on the floor. I’m executing my coaching sessions, conducting side-by-sides and providing real-time feedback to keep the team motivated and on track for our enrollment targets.

Employee Reviews

Kimberly L.

Achieve’s sales culture hinges on the notion of “balancing the heart with the dollar.” In other words, everything teammates accomplish is intended to weigh their own needs with the needs of both the business and the consumer.

Help our members move forward and get on a path to a better financial future with personal loans, home loans, and help with debt to solve their unique needs. Our sales teams are a collaborative group of individuals from all backgrounds working to bring our mission to life with an empathetic touch.

One of the best parts about our sales team is the top-tier education and training during the onboarding process. We’re thrilled to teach, develop and empower people who have a passion for changing the future and provide opportunities to become leaders while building a meaningful career.
Marlene Simpson

According to Marlene Simpson, the role of unit manager at personal finance company Achieve is a balancing act between achieving business goals and measuring the daily impact the sales team has on customers’ lives.

Marlene Simpson, Unit Manager

“My role isn’t just about managing a floor; it’s about leading a team of consultants who are often the first point of contact for people in real financial distress... Having joined Achieve in September, the most rewarding part of my week is witnessing the 'click' — that specific moment when the coaching we’ve worked on together translates into a tangible win for an agent. Being relatively new to this team, I’ve been heavily focused on building authentic connections and earning my agents’ trust. The highlight of my week is when an agent comes back to me after a call, excited to share that they implemented a specific strategy from our session and it directly led to a new enrollment. It’s incredibly fulfilling to receive that feedback."
