Job description

This 100% remote, 1099 independent-contractor life insurance sales role welcomes veterans and military spouses. You'll help families who asked for information understand their options and apply, working from home on a schedule you manage.

What you'll actually do

• Call or video-chat with people who already requested life insurance information from us
• Learn each household's situation and priorities before showing a single option
• Explain coverage choices in plain language, then complete the application together
• Follow every application through underwriting and keep the family updated until a decision
• Log each conversation and next step in the CRM as it happens
• Keep up with ongoing training on products, carriers, and state rules

Who this is a fit for

• Military service or military-family life is welcome here, but it isn't required
• Comfortable holding appointments by phone and video from your own home office
• Disciplined enough to run your day without someone setting the agenda
• A state life insurance license, or a plan to get licensed before your first sale
• Straightforward with people making real decisions for their families
• At least 18 and legally authorized to work in the United States

What we provide

• Contracts with 43 carriers, so you recommend what fits instead of one company's lineup
• Access to exclusive lead systems, so your conversations start with people who asked first
• Weekly team calls, plus call reviews, scripts, and ride-alongs when you want them
• One-on-one mentorship from Ben and Andrea, who run the agency

The honest part

Compensation: paid under an independent contractor (1099) contract. If you need someone to hand you a daily schedule, this isn't the right fit.
