Job description

Wood Agency Life is hiring entry-level agents in the Madisonville, Kentucky area to sell life insurance and help families review coverage options from home. This is a remote, work-from-home position serving Madisonville, Kentucky — you\'ll work entirely from your own location. This role suits people switching careers who want structured licensing support and real training, not just a sales script.

What you\'ll do

• Reach out to prospective families who\'ve shown interest in coverage, by phone and video, to set up a time to talk.
• Ask about the family\'s finances, health history and goals before suggesting any policy.
• Walk clients through term, whole life, mortgage protection, final expense, IUL or annuity options depending on their needs.
• Complete the carrier\'s e-application together with the client once they choose a policy.
• Track every call, appointment and follow-up in the agency\'s CRM.
• Stay in touch with clients while their case moves through underwriting and let them know once a decision is made.

Qualifications

• Comfortable with phone and video calls daily; this is not an in-person job.
• No insurance license required to apply — the agency walks you through roughly two weeks of coursework before you start selling.
• Reliable computer, phone and internet connection.
• Organized follow-up habits; able to track multiple client conversations at once.
• Willing to learn carrier systems and keep detailed CRM notes.

What we provide

• Guidance through licensing coursework, typically about two weeks, before you start selling.
• Access to multiple carriers through an independent agency, not a single captive line.
• Direct mentorship from Ben and Andrea Wood, the agency\'s founders.
• CRM and carrier platform access for managing your pipeline.
