The Wood Agency Life
Part-Time Remote Sales Agent — Evenings and Weekends
Role: Sales Representative
The Wood Agency is hiring part-time, remote life insurance sales agents in Orwell, VT to review coverage needs with families and walk them through applying for a policy. This is a remote, work-from-home position open to candidates in Orwell, VT, with flexible evening and weekend hours that may suit someone trying commission-based sales work.
What you'll do
- Reach people who have already asked for information about coverage and set up remote appointments during evening and weekend hours
- Learn each family's situation — income, dependents, concerns — before presenting any options
- Complete applications together with clients using the carrier's quoting and e-app systems
- Track pending cases through the carrier review process and keep each family updated until a policy is issued
- Log calls, notes, and follow-ups in the CRM as you go
- Work within your state's insurance requirements and The Wood Agency's compliance standards on every case
Qualifications
- Legally authorized to work in the United States
- A state life insurance license, or the ability to get licensed before your first client sale
- Comfortable holding phone and video appointments and explaining policy details in plain language
- Reliable internet, a computer, and a phone
- Consistent evening or weekend hours you can protect each week
- Self-directed follow-through — this work runs on your own schedule, not someone else's tracking
What we provide
- The Wood Agency is an independent agency contracted with 43 carriers and licensed in all 50 states — agents can present a range of options without being tied to one company's products
- An exclusive lead system is available to agents (leads are the agent's own expense to arrange)
- Weekly team calls, scripts, and call review sessions are available to join
- 1:1 mentorship and ride-alongs are available through Ben and Andrea, who run the agency
