The Wood Agency Life
Remote Sales Agent — Former Shift Workers Welcome
Role: Sales Representative
The Wood Agency is hiring remote life insurance sales agents in Ackerman, MS to help families review coverage and apply for policies. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position open to candidates in Ackerman, MS. The role suits people stepping out of shift-based work who want control over their schedule.
What you'll do
- Reach out to people who have already expressed interest in life insurance to schedule a remote conversation
- Take time to understand each client's situation before presenting any coverage options
- Walk through suitable policies from The Wood Agency's network of 43 carriers and complete the application with the client
- Keep clients informed while their case moves through the carrier review process toward a decision
- Log calls, notes, and appointments in a web-based CRM as you go
- Stay current through ongoing product and carrier training as it becomes available
Qualifications
- Legally authorized to work in the United States
- A state life insurance license, or the ability to obtain one before your first client conversation — the onboarding plan targets licensure within the first two weeks
- Comfortable holding phone and video calls and navigating basic web-based tools
- Self-directed: you set your own calendar and follow through without daily check-ins
- A computer, a phone, and a reliable internet connection
- Consistent follow-up habits — pending cases and clients both need timely attention
What we provide
- 100% remote work, open to agents across all 50 states — no office, no assigned shift
- Access to an exclusive lead system, so you're connecting with people who have already asked about coverage
- Weekly team call, scripts, call reviews, and ride-alongs — available to support your development
- 1:1 mentorship with Ben and Andrea at The Wood Agency
Compensation
This is a 1099 independent contractor position. Compensation is commission-based — no salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production. If that structure fits where you are right now, The Wood Agency welcomes your application.
