Remote Sales Consultant — Telecom and Cable Sales Pros Welcome

The Wood Agency in Ottumwa, IA hires remote life insurance sales consultants — people to sell coverage to families who've already requested it. This is a remote, work-from-home position open to candidates in Ottumwa, IA. Telecom, cable, and subscription sales backgrounds translate well here.

What you'll do

• Connect with people who've already asked about life insurance — your first call is a scheduled appointment, not a cold pitch
• Ask about their household and situation before presenting anything

• Complete the application together using the carrier's quoting and e-app platform during the appointment
• Track each case through underwriting and keep the client informed until the policy is issued
• Stay current on product, carrier, and compliance training — it continues throughout your time here, not just in week one

Qualifications

• Legally authorized to work in the United States
• Comfortable running every appointment by phone and video
• Experienced explaining plan options, pricing tiers, or contract terms in plain language — that skill carries directly here
• Able to use web-based quoting tools and a CRM as a normal part of the workday
• Must hold a state life insurance license or complete the licensing process before writing business
• Reliable computer, phone, and internet connection for fully remote work
