Start my application

Serving the Orofino, ID area, The Wood Agency is looking for self-employed professionals ready to bring their independence and work ethic to life insurance sales. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position — you'll consult with families across Idaho and beyond without commuting to an office. If you've already proven you can run yourself as a 1099 contractor or business owner, this role offers a product and structure built for people like you.

What you'll actually do

  • Consult with families on term life, whole life, final expense, or IUL based on their real situation
  • Set your own hours, work your own leads, and own your results without management overhead
  • Present coverage options across 43 carriers — you're consulting, not pitching one thing
  • Handle applications and follow clients through underwriting without handing them off
  • Stay available through the full policy life, including benefit claims
  • Show up to weekly team calls and call reviews to stay sharp and connected

Who this is a fit for

  • Freelancers, contractors, or small business owners who already operate independently
  • People with a track record of working without management and staying accountable anyway
  • Anyone who's sold products or services before and wants the earning structure to match the effort
  • Unlicensed candidates willing to get licensed — typically done within the first two weeks
  • People who want the work to matter, not just pay

What we provide

  • Direct mentorship from Ben and Andrea — Ben spent 20 years as a photographer before coming to insurance, so the unconventional-path conversation is a real one
  • Scripts, call reviews, ride-alongs, and 1:1 support from day one
  • A 43-carrier portfolio so you're recommending the right fit, not defending one option
  • Weekly team calls with 13 agents across all 50 states
  • A remote model with four years behind it and a team that operates it every day

The honest part

This is commission-based 1099 work — same structure you already understand, different industry. It's not for people who need certainty before they act or who want to be told exactly what to do every day. If you're self-directed, resilient, and want work that serves families in a real way, apply today or reach out with questions. The Wood Agency is ready to support your next move.
