The Butler Agency
Term Life Insurance Sales Agent — Educators Welcome | Remote / 1099
Role: Term Life Insurance Sales Agent
Secaucus, NJ logistics and corporate professionals: The Butler Agency is recruiting 100% remote, commission-based 1099 term life insurance agents who excel at connecting with people. This is a remote, work-from-home position serving the Secaucus, NJ area. If you spent years teaching, training, coaching, or leading teams and you're ready to apply those skills in a new field, we want to hear from you.
What you'll actually do
- Contact prospective clients who have requested information about term life coverage
- Schedule and hold phone or video conversations to understand each client's situation
- Explain term life policy options plainly and help clients compare what fits their needs and budget
- Assist clients through the application process and follow each case through underwriting
- Manage your lead pipeline and follow-up cadence using a CRM provided at no cost
- Attend weekly team calls and complete call reviews to keep sharpening your skills
Who this is a fit for
- Former teachers, trainers, coaches, or instructors ready for a deliberate career pivot
- People who hold a state life insurance license — or are committed to getting licensed before selling
- Communicators who can break down complex topics simply and without pressure
- Self-starters who work well independently but genuinely value a coaching-rich environment
- People motivated by serving families, not just hitting a number
What we provide
- A dedicated 1:1 mentor through The Butler Agency — a real person, not a manual
- Ride-alongs so you can learn by watching before you're working solo
- CRM access, scripts, and call reviews from day one
- Warm leads provided alongside your own self-generated outreach
The honest part
This is commission-only, 1099 independent-contractor work — not a teaching salary or a benefits-eligible position. If you need guaranteed pay right now, this isn't the right timing. If you're a licensed educator ready to build something new, reach out to The Butler Agency and let's talk straight.
Ready to serve Secaucus families and professionals with term life coverage they need? Apply now or contact The Butler Agency directly to discuss the role and your background.
