Start my application

Shipley Legacy Group is hiring remote life insurance sales agents in the Akron, OH area to help individuals and families review coverage and apply for policies. This is a remote, work-from-home position. The role suits people who already earn on commission in another field and want to bring that same discipline to a product with real weight behind it.

What you'll do

  • Reach out to people who have already asked for information about life insurance
  • Set and hold remote appointments to learn each family's situation before presenting anything
  • Walk clients through their options clearly and help complete an application together
  • Track each case through the review process and keep clients informed until a policy is issued
  • Log activity and notes in the agency CRM as work happens
  • Keep up with product and carrier training available through Shipley Legacy Group

Qualifications

  • Currently or recently working in a commission-based role — any industry
  • Comfortable building trust and holding focused conversations by phone or video
  • Able to manage a pipeline, follow up without being prompted, and see a deal through
  • A state life insurance license, or the ability to get one before writing business
  • Reliable computer, phone, and internet connection for fully remote work

What we provide

  • Direct carrier appointments through Shipley Legacy Group, a six-year-old independent agency with 17 agents
  • One-on-one mentorship and scripts available to support your start
  • Weekly team calls and call reviews you can join
  • Ongoing training on products and carriers — available at no cost to you

Compensation

This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity with Shipley Legacy Group. Compensation is commission-based; no salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production. If this is already how you work, we'd like to hear from you.
