The Wood Agency Life
Former First Responders & Law Enforcement — Remote Whole Life Sales, 1099
Killdeer's seen roughnecks and ranch families build real careers on independence and grit — and if you're one of them looking for something more stable without losing control of your schedule, The Wood Agency has an opening. This is a 100% remote, work-from-home position serving the Killdeer, ND area, and it's commission-based 1099 whole life insurance sales. You gave structure everything you had in first response or law enforcement. Now you want room to grow and a paycheck tied to your own hustle — not permission slips.
What you'll actually do
- Contact prospective clients who've requested information about life insurance coverage
- Schedule and hold coverage conversations by phone or video
- Listen to each client's situation before explaining any whole life options
- Help clients complete applications and follow them through underwriting
- Stay with clients through the full relationship — including benefit claims
- Attend weekly team calls and participate in call reviews to sharpen your approach
Who this is a fit for
- Former law enforcement, corrections officers, firefighters, or public-service professionals
- People who thrived in structure but now want to own their schedule and build something independently
- Disciplined and self-directed — you don't need to be managed, but you actually show up
- Comfortable earning on commission and building a client base over time
- Willing to obtain a state life insurance license before your first sale
- Someone who wants to consult clients honestly, not pressure them
What we provide
- Weekly team calls, scripts, call reviews, and ride-alongs
- 1:1 mentorship from Ben and Andrea at The Wood Agency — 13 agents, 43 carriers, licensed in all 50 states
- A clear month-one plan: licensed by end of week 2, making sales calls by end of month one
The honest part
This is 100% commission-only 1099 work. No salary, no guaranteed pay for showing up. If your situation requires predictable income right now, that's a fair reason to pass. If you want to understand what this role actually looks like day to day, reach out to The Wood Agency directly.
