Second Career Life Insurance Agent

Wood Agency Life is hiring career changers in the Paragould, Arkansas area to sell life insurance and mortgage protection to families nationwide. This is a remote, work-from-home position serving clients by phone and video. Both founders made this same jump — one from photography, one from real estate — before building this agency.

• Reach out to families who've requested information about coverage and set up a time to talk by phone or video.
• Learn about each family's budget, health and goals before walking through any options.
• Explain term, whole life, mortgage protection and final expense coverage in plain language.
• Complete applications together with the client using the carrier's e-app system.
• Record calls, appointments and case notes in the CRM as you go.
• Check in with clients while their application is pending and let them know when a decision is made.

• No insurance background required — licensing coursework takes about two weeks with agency support.
• Comfortable on the phone and on video calls with people you haven't met before.
• Basic comfort learning new software for quoting and tracking clients.
• Follow-through on tasks without someone checking in on you.

• Step-by-step help getting licensed, typically about two weeks of coursework.
• Access to multiple carriers through an independent agency instead of one captive product line.
• Direct mentorship from founders Ben and Andrea Wood, who both changed careers into this work.
• CRM and carrier system access from day one.

This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity. Compensation is commission-based. No salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production.
