Reid Agency

Remote Sales Agent — Direct & Commission Sales Pros

Role: Sales Representative

Canton, ME Contract (1099) Posted Sep 28, 2026
Start my application

The Reid Agency is hiring remote life insurance sales agents in Canton, ME for people who already earn on commission and want work that carries real purpose. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position. If you've built a career on variable pay — solar, door-to-door, car sales, or B2B inside sales — this is worth a serious look.

What you'll do

  • Reach out to prospective clients and set up remote conversations about life insurance coverage
  • Schedule and hold remote appointments by phone or video to understand each family's situation before presenting anything
  • Walk clients through their options plainly and complete applications together during the call
  • Log every conversation and follow-up step in the CRM as the work happens
  • Track each pending case through underwriting and keep clients informed until coverage is issued
  • Stay current on products, carriers, and sales approach through ongoing training — not a single onboarding week and done

Qualifications

  • A state life insurance license, or the ability to obtain one before your first sale — The Reid Agency sets weeks 1–2 of onboarding aside specifically for licensing
  • A real track record of earning on commission or variable pay without a guaranteed base
  • Comfortable running full conversations by phone and video — every appointment is remote
  • Disciplined with follow-up and at ease in web-based quoting, e-application, and CRM platforms
  • U.S. citizen or permanent resident (green card holder)

What we provide

  • Access to products from 50 carriers — The Reid Agency is an independent agency contracted across all 50 states
  • Scripts, call reviews, weekly team calls, 1:1 mentorship, and ride-alongs available to agents who want them
  • A structured first month: licensing in weeks 1–2, training and shadowing in week 3, running appointments by week 4
  • A 40-agent team with a culture built around support and shared learning

Compensation

This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity with The Reid Agency. Compensation is commission-based. No salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production. If that structure fits how you already work, we'd like to hear from you.
