Career Pivot After a Health Change — Remote Final Expense Sales, 1099

Role: Final Expense Insurance Sales Agent

Holcomb, KS Contract (1099) Posted Aug 26, 2026
Start my application

The Wood Agency is seeking remote final expense life insurance sales professionals to serve Holcomb, KS and surrounding areas. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position — ideal for manufacturing and protein-industry professionals navigating a career transition or seeking genuine schedule flexibility. You'll work on a 1099 commission basis, building a client book at your own pace while serving families in your market through the full relationship.

What you'll actually do

  • Reach out to clients who've inquired about final expense coverage
  • Hold coverage conversations by phone or video on a schedule your life can work around
  • Learn each client's needs before presenting any product options
  • Explain final expense options clearly and help clients complete applications
  • Follow applications through underwriting and stay available through the claims process
  • Attend weekly team calls and work through scripts and call reviews

Who this is a fit for

  • Anyone whose previous career — physical, medical, or otherwise — is no longer workable
  • Career changers who need genuine schedule flexibility, not just a different commute
  • Self-motivated and resilient — you push through slow weeks without someone managing your energy
  • Willing to get a life insurance license before selling (we'll walk you through the steps)
  • Comfortable with commission-based income and building a client book over time
  • People who want to serve clients through the full relationship, not just make a sale

What we provide

  • 1:1 mentorship with Ben and Andrea at The Wood Agency directly — not a downline, not a management chain
  • Weekly team calls, scripts, ride-alongs, and call reviews
  • Access to 43 carriers across all 50 states
  • Month-one milestones: licensed by week 2, contracted by week 3, making calls by end of month one

The honest part

This is 100% commission-only 1099 independent contractor work. If you need a guaranteed paycheck from day one, this isn't the right fit right now — and that's honest, not a failure. If the flexibility and the structure here match your situation, contact The Wood Agency directly to explore whether this role is right for you and your market.
