The Reid Agency is hiring remote sales agents to help families review final expense life insurance options and apply for coverage. This role is a strong fit for career changers — people from restaurant, construction, claims, or similar backgrounds who already know how to connect with others and follow through when it matters.
What you'll do
- Reach out to prospective final expense clients and schedule remote conversations
- Learn each client's situation — budget, health context, and coverage goals — before presenting any options
- Walk clients through policy choices and complete applications together over the phone or video
- Track each pending case through to policy issuance and keep clients informed while it is in process
- Log calls, appointments, and notes in the agency CRM as they happen
- Complete product, carrier, and compliance training on a continuing basis — not just in week one
Qualifications
- U.S. citizen or permanent resident (green card holder)
- A state life insurance license, or the capacity to obtain one before your first sale — the onboarding plan sets aside weeks 1 and 2 specifically for licensing
- Comfortable working by phone and video with people from a wide range of backgrounds
- Reliable computer, phone, and internet connection for fully remote work
- Self-directed follow-through — you manage your own schedule and keep your pipeline moving
What we provide
- Scripts, call reviews, and one-on-one mentorship available as you get started
- Weekly team calls and ride-alongs available to agents building their practice
- Access to 50 carriers so clients have real coverage choices
- A team culture at The Reid Agency grounded in support and encouragement — agents like Michelle (formerly P&C claims, now an agency leader and trainer), James (formerly construction, now the agency’s top agent) and Louann (formerly in the restaurant industry, now launching her own agency) came from backgrounds like yours
