The Butler Agency

Whole Life Insurance Sales Agent — Career Changers Welcome | Remote / 1099

Flatwoods, WV Full-time Posted Aug 12, 2026
Start my application

Are you in the Flatwoods, WV area—or anywhere in the Interstate 79 corridor—and ready for a real career change out of retail, hospitality, or a job where your success felt out of your hands? The Butler Agency is hiring commission-based life insurance sales agents to serve families across West Virginia. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position; you'll build your book of business from anywhere, with no commute and no office requirement.

What you'll actually do

  • Reach out to prospective clients who have expressed interest in whole life coverage
  • Schedule and hold conversations to understand each family's protection needs
  • Explain whole life policy options honestly and in language people actually understand
  • Help clients complete an application and walk them through the underwriting process
  • Manage your pipeline in a provided CRM with consistent, organized follow-up
  • Attend weekly team calls and call reviews to keep building real skill

Who this is a fit for

  • Career changers who are coachable, motivated, and ready to learn something new from the ground up
  • People willing to obtain a state life insurance license before they begin selling
  • Those coming from industries where results felt tied to forces outside their control — like Chris, a 15-year mortgage industry veteran who got licensed in a few weeks and now runs his own schedule in a field that doesn't rise and fall with interest rates
  • Self-starters who can follow through consistently without constant hand-holding
  • People who want to serve families and build a book of business they actually own

What we provide

  • A 1:1 mentor and ride-alongs so you are not starting from scratch on your own
  • Scripts and call reviews from day one to build real confidence in every conversation
  • CRM provided — organized and ready to go when you are
  • Warm leads provided and support developing self-generated leads as you grow
  • Weekly team calls that connect you to people doing this work right alongside you

The honest part

This is 100% commission-based 1099 independent-contractor work — no salary, no guaranteed pay. It is not for everyone, and The Butler Agency will tell you that plainly. But if you are serious about a career change and want a team that will genuinely show up for you while you build, apply today and let's talk.
