Start my application

Serving Exeter, RI and the surrounding rural communities, The Lyons Agency is looking for a life insurance agent ready to build real financial independence on your own terms. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position — you'll work from wherever you are while helping families across all 50 states protect their futures. If you're financially curious, client-focused, and tired of trading time for a capped paycheck, this commission-based 1099 role might be the career change worth making.

What you'll actually do

  • Contact prospective clients to schedule coverage and strategy conversations
  • Learn each client's financial picture and walk them through available options — whole life, IBC concepts, annuities, and general life coverage
  • Help clients understand how policies like Indexed Universal Life or debt-free strategies work in plain language
  • Complete and submit applications, then support clients through underwriting
  • Build your book of business across all 50 states using carrier contracts you hold in your own name
  • Tap into weekly team calls, 1:1 mentor time, and case design help as you grow your practice

Who this is a fit for

  • Career-changers from corporate, finance, banking, or office environments who are wired to learn
  • People who get energized explaining financial concepts to others
  • Self-starters who take initiative and ask for help in equal measure
  • Current or prospective life insurance licensees willing to put in structured effort from week one
  • Anyone who wants freedom over their schedule without trading away mentorship and support

What we provide

  • Direct carrier appointments across 50 carriers — you hold your own contracts
  • 1:1 mentor availability and access to weekly team calls and agent community at The Lyons Agency
  • Scripts, call reviews, CRM access, and case design help available as you build
  • A reduced-cost lead program designed to be accessible for agents who are starting out
  • No production quota — this is a career you build at your pace, with real support available

The honest part

This is 100% commission, 1099 independent-contractor work — no salary, no guaranteed pay, not a corporate job. It is not a fit if you need the comfort of a set paycheck or aren't ready to grow. If you're ready to do the work, The Lyons Agency has 15 agents, four years in, and leaders who genuinely want to see you win — apply and let's find out if this is your next chapter.

Ready to take control of your future? Apply now and join a team that's serious about your success.
