From Shift Work to Remote Life Insurance Agent — Healthcare & Trades Career Changers (1099)

Beaufort, SC is home to military families, retirees, and professionals who understand the value of protection and planning — and Shipley Legacy Group is hiring remote, commission-based 1099 life insurance agents to serve this market. If you're a nurse, paramedic, electrician, or machinist who's done letting the shift schedule own you, this is a work-from-home opportunity built for career changers. No insurance background required to get started — just a willingness to learn and do the work.

What you'll actually do

• Contact prospective clients by phone to introduce life insurance coverage options
• Schedule and hold one-on-one coverage conversations around your own calendar
• Listen to each client's situation and walk them through policy options that fit their needs
• Help clients complete an application and follow it through underwriting
• Use scripts and call-review resources available through the agency to sharpen your approach
• Lean on a 1:1 mentor when you hit a case or conversation you're not sure how to handle

Who this is a fit for

• Healthcare workers or tradespeople ready to leave rotating shifts and mandatory overtime behind
• People who are good at explaining complicated things clearly — that skill transfers directly here
• Self-starters who can hold themselves accountable without a manager hovering
• Someone willing to obtain a state life insurance license before selling, or who already holds one
• Comfortable working independently from home with a phone, computer, and reliable internet
• Someone who wants a schedule they build, not one handed to them at the start of the week

What we provide

• Direct carrier appointments available to agents from day one
• 1:1 mentorship and scripts available to support your learning curve
• Free ongoing training and a weekly team call available to all agents on the team
• Underwriting advocacy available when a client's case needs extra attention

The honest part

This is 100% commission-based 1099 work — no salary, no guaranteed pay, and no shortcuts. Anissa and Joe Shipley started this agency after losing close family members and learning firsthand why this coverage matters; they've been building the team for six years. If you bring the discipline, Shipley Legacy Group has the structure to help you learn the business. Ready to take control of your schedule and build something real?
