We certainly see a lot of ads for cheap life insurance, but you seldom see an ad for no load life insurance. This is because this life insurance is sold without adding the commission fees into the premium, and so it is much cheaper.

Insurance companies spend a lot in TV ads, direct mailers, and magazine spreads.
