Life Insurance Agent — Former Construction & Trades Professionals (Remote, 1099)

Dell Rapids, SD — if you've built a life on hard work and know how to show up and get the job done, we want to talk to you. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position serving families across the country, and it rewards the same work ethic you've already proven in construction, trades, or blue-collar work. James came to The Reid Agency from construction and became the top agent on the team within one year — he's now working toward launching his own agency.

What you'll actually do

• Talk with families about life insurance and financial protection by phone and video
• Present options from 50 carriers — term, whole life, final expense, and more
• Book and run your own appointments from anywhere in the country
• Complete your licensing in the first two weeks — we walk you through every step
• Learn the business through mentorship, ride-alongs, and live call reviews
• Build a client base and book of business that belongs to you

Who this is a fit for

• Trades workers, contractors, or construction professionals ready for a real change
• People used to showing up, grinding, and solving problems without being told how
• Those who want to work with people and actually help them, not just move product
• Self-starters done trading hours for someone else's profit
• Unlicensed candidates willing to commit to the process starting in Week 1
• Anyone with drive, discipline, and a vision bigger than where they are right now

What we provide

• Scripts, call reviews, and a dedicated 1:1 mentor from your first week
• Ride-alongs so you see how real appointments run before you go solo
• Weekly team calls with 40 agents across all 50 states — a real community
• Structured first month: licensing, training, shadowing, then live appointments
• 50 carriers so you serve each family honestly, not push a single product
• The Reid Agency's family culture — support, encouragement, and genuine celebration

The honest part

This is commission-only, 1099 independent contractor work — no base pay, no guaranteed hours, no W-2. It's not for everyone, and we mean that honestly. But if you've got the grit and a fire that won't quit, reach out and let's talk about what building something real looks like.
