Start my application

Are you an education-driven professional or administrator in the Galesburg, IL area looking to transition into independent insurance sales? The Butler Agency is hiring 100% remote, commission-based 1099 final expense life insurance agents who think like entrepreneurs. This is a remote, work-from-home position serving the Galesburg, IL area—you'll work entirely from home while building your own practice.

What you'll actually do

  • Contact prospective clients who have requested information about final expense coverage
  • Schedule and hold one-on-one coverage conversations by phone or video
  • Listen to each client's situation and explain the policy options available to them
  • Help interested clients complete applications and guide them through underwriting
  • Manage follow-up and your pipeline using the provided CRM
  • Join weekly team calls and participate in script and call reviews to keep improving

Who this is a fit for

  • Sales professionals with B2C or relationship-based experience who are ready to work for themselves
  • People who want genuine ownership over their schedule as an independent contractor
  • Those who hold a state life insurance license or are willing to obtain one before selling
  • Self-starters who follow through without needing someone looking over their shoulder
  • Candidates who want structured mentorship while building an independent practice
  • Anyone drawn to work that connects real protection to real families

What we provide

  • 1:1 mentor and ride-alongs from day one at The Butler Agency
  • Provided CRM, scripts, and ongoing call reviews to sharpen your approach
  • Warm leads provided alongside support for self-generating your own
  • Weekly team call to stay connected and accountable

The honest part

This is 100% commission-based 1099 work — no salary, no guaranteed pay. It is not the right fit for someone who needs a predictable paycheck before results come in. If you're serious about building an independent practice with real support behind you, apply with The Butler Agency and let's talk.
