    Job Description

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

    What you'll do

    • 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.

    Qualifications

    • 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.

    What we provide

    • 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.

    Compensation

    This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity. Compensation is commission-based. No salary or hourly pay is provided. Earnings depend on individual production. If a second career in life insurance sounds like your next step, apply through this listing or call (928) 889-6338 to learn more about serving Kenner, Louisiana families.
