Sales Professional – Life Insurance Advisor
Remote Life Insurance Advisor — The Wood Agency (1099 Independent Contractor | 100% Remote)
Ridgeland, SC has long been home to hardworking professionals in logistics, operations, and services who know what it means to show up and deliver — and The Wood Agency is looking for that same character in its next remote advisor. This is a remote, work-from-home position serving the Ridgeland, SC area, so no commute, no local office, and no relocation required — just a strong work ethic and the drive to build something that matters. At The Wood Agency, the conversations you have on an ordinary Tuesday afternoon can be the reason a family sleeps a little easier that night. That's the kind of work we do.
What You'll Actually Be Doing
- Meeting virtually with families who have already raised their hand — they've requested information about life insurance and are expecting your call
- Guiding clients through coverage options including mortgage protection, final expense, life insurance, and retirement-focused solutions — at their pace, not yours
- Having real conversations that educate rather than pressure, so families can make decisions they feel confident about
- Managing your own schedule, your own pipeline, and your own professional growth
- Building a book of business that compounds over time through relationships and referrals
What Sets This Apart
- Warm leads, not cold doors — no door-knocking, no cold calling strangers, no uncomfortable pitch tactics
- Truly flexible and fully remote — design your week around your life, not around an office
- Real mentorship from people actively doing the work — not a training video library you're left alone with
- A national agent community with live collaboration, shared best practices, and genuine team culture
- Annual conferences and leadership development for those who want to grow beyond their current role
- Commission-based compensation tied directly to the effort and consistency you bring
The People Who Do Well Here
- Those who are energized by meaningful conversations, not just transactions
- Self-directed professionals who take ownership without being managed step by step
- People who are willing to learn, take feedback well, and apply it quickly
- Communicators who build trust naturally and follow through on what they say
- Entrepreneurial thinkers who want their results to reflect their effort — not a predetermined salary cap
What You'll Need
- An active life insurance license is preferred — if you don't have one yet, we can point you in the right direction
- A reliable internet connection and comfort with virtual meetings
- Legal authorization to work in the United States
