The Wood Agency Life

Remote Sales Consultant — Outside Sales and Territory Reps Welcome

Role: Sales Consultant

Southern Pines, NC Contract (1099) Posted Sep 28, 2026
Start my application

The Wood Agency is hiring a remote life insurance sales consultant to serve Southern Pines, NC and nationwide. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position. The work involves helping families who've already requested coverage review their options and apply — from first conversation through to issued policy. This may suit outside or territory sales professionals ready to bring their client work entirely online.

What you'll do

  • Follow up with people who've already requested life insurance information — no cold prospecting
  • Schedule and hold remote consultations by phone or video
  • Ask questions and listen first — understand a family's situation before presenting any options
  • Walk through coverage choices and complete the application together using carrier quoting and e-app tools
  • Log conversations and activity in the CRM as each call happens
  • Keep each pending case moving — stay in contact with clients and the carrier through to policy issue

Qualifications

  • Legally authorized to work in the United States
  • A state life insurance license — or a concrete plan to get licensed before your first sales call
  • Computer, phone, and reliable internet connection (you'll run everything from home)
  • Comfortable managing client conversations on video and by phone with no physical office behind you
  • Able to self-manage a pipeline, follow up on your own schedule, and stay consistent without outside prompting
  • Some history working with variable or commission-based compensation — this role carries no salary or base

What we provide

  • An independent agency contracted with 43 carriers — you match clients to what fits their situation, not what's available from a single company
  • Access to an exclusive lead system — discuss availability and costs with The Wood Agency when you connect
  • Weekly team calls, call reviews, scripts, and ride-alongs available when you want them
  • 1:1 mentorship available with Ben and Andrea, who built and run 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 makes sense for your situation, The Wood Agency welcomes your application.
