Start my application

The Wood Agency is hiring work-from-home sales specialists in Dunn, NC to help individuals and families review life insurance options and apply for coverage. This is a remote, work-from-home position. The role suits people who explain things clearly, work well without close supervision, and want a flexible schedule.

What you'll do

  • Reach out to people who have already expressed interest in life insurance and schedule time to talk by phone or video
  • Ask questions to understand each family's situation before presenting any options
  • Walk clients through coverage choices that fit their needs and complete the application together
  • Log activity and follow-up notes in the CRM as conversations happen
  • Track each pending application and keep clients informed while the carrier reviews their case
  • Stay current on products, carriers, and compliance standards — training here is ongoing, not a one-time onboarding

Qualifications

  • Legally authorized to work in the United States
  • A state life insurance license, or the ability to get one before your first sale
  • Comfortable running professional conversations by phone and video
  • Able to break down policy terms and coverage details in plain language for people hearing them for the first time
  • Consistent follow-through on open cases without external deadlines keeping you on track
  • A computer, reliable internet, and a phone for fully remote work

What we provide

  • Access to an exclusive lead system; ask us about costs and terms
  • Weekly team call, scripts, call reviews, and ride-along support available to agents
  • 1:1 mentorship available for new agents getting started
  • Contracts across 43 carriers, with the agency licensed in all 50 states

Compensation

This is a 1099 independent contractor role. Compensation is commission-based. No salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production. If that structure fits your situation, The Wood Agency welcomes your application.
