About Mims Financial Services, LLC

Mims Financial Services, LLC helps individuals and families explore life insurance and related financial protection solutions based on their needs and goals. We provide agents with access to contracted insurance carriers, training, mentorship, and administrative resources to help them develop their knowledge and build their insurance business.

We are seeking motivated, dependable individuals interested in starting or developing a career in life insurance sales. Previous insurance experience is helpful but not required for candidates who are willing to learn, meet applicable licensing requirements, and develop their sales skills.

As an independent life insurance agent, you will work with individuals and families to understand their financial protection needs and present appropriate insurance options. You will have the opportunity to develop your product knowledge, strengthen your client communication skills, and build your own book of business with support and guidance from the agency.

This is a remote, commission-only independent-contractor opportunity—not a salaried or hourly position. Your results will depend on your sales activity, client relationships, and ability to place eligible insurance business.

Responsibilities

• Connect with prospective clients to understand their needs, priorities, and financial protection goals.
• Explain available insurance products and help clients evaluate suitable options.

• Participate in available training and mentorship to strengthen product knowledge and sales skills.
• Follow applicable insurance laws, carrier guidelines, ethical standards, and client privacy requirements.

Insurance Products

Depending on client eligibility, needs, and carrier availability, agents may work with products such as:

• Life insurance
• Mortgage protection
• Final expense insurance
• Indexed Universal Life (IUL) insurance
• Annuities, where appropriately licensed and authorized

Product availability, eligibility, and suitability vary by carrier and individual circumstances.

Training and Support

Mims Financial Services, LLC offers access to resources designed to help agents develop their insurance knowledge and professional skills, including:

• Training and ongoing educational opportunities
• Mentorship and guidance from experienced professionals
• Access to contracted insurance carriers and available product information
• Administrative resources to assist with the application and policy placement process

Agents are responsible for meeting applicable licensing requirements before conducting activities that require a license.

Qualifications

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• A professional, dependable, and client-focused approach.
• Willingness to learn insurance products, sales practices, and applicable regulations.
• Ability to work independently, stay organized, and manage follow-up activities.
• Comfort using digital tools, virtual communication platforms, and client-management systems.
• Commitment to ethical sales practices, accurate communication, and client confidentiality.
• An active, appropriate insurance license, or willingness to obtain the required license before performing regulated activities.

Previous experience in sales, customer service, hospitality, relationship management, or other client-facing roles can be beneficial. Entry-level applicants are encouraged to apply.

Depending on the applicable contract, compensation may include commissions, renewals, bonuses, or other specified components. Commission advances, where offered, are subject to the applicable agreement and may be recoverable. Commission reversals or chargebacks may apply to certain policies.
