(See the bottom of this post for instructions on how to apply.) Work from home selling life insurance full-time or part-time! Remote work Set your own schedule Part-time or full-time All training provided Are you ready to work for a team where you feel like family? Are you ready to build your OWN future rather than someone else's kingdom? What is this? This is a commission-only, independently contracted (1099), remote work sales position selling life insurance from home to people who have already contacted us looking for help with life insurance. NO COLD CALLING, AND NO BUGGING FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO BUY LIFE INSURANCE FROM YOU. (See the bottom of this post for instructions on how to apply.) ------------------------------- Are We Looking for Each Other? My name is Chris, and I'm the sole income earner for a family of 6. I might be who you're looking for, and you might be who I'm looking for…keep reading to decide. I'm a guy who loves spending time with my family, likes staying active, enjoys building businesses, and who wants to make a positive impact on the world. In February of 2020 I was deeply in debt due to a failed business in my previous ecommerce career. I barely had any income. I needed a new source of income, and I needed it fast. That's when I discovered the life insurance industry, and it has changed life for me and my family. I started in this industry 5 years ago with absolutely zero insurance or sales experience. After overcoming my initial skepticism, I learned that it's possible for someone like me with no experience to learn this business, starting from the beginning, and have lots of success. The life insurance agency I have built since 2020 will do over $9 million in sales this year. And I can show you how to build an agency that gets great results as well! We're looking for more great people to join our growing and successful team…people who share our values of service, relationships, and personal growth! The best part is we work on our own terms, as much or as little as we want, from wherever we want, and we're free to be there for our families and enjoy life and important events with them. Who else wants to earn good income, from home, on your own terms, helping families secure their financial futures by getting life insurance coverage in place? We have a proven system and sales process, and if this is resonating with you we'd love to explore having you on our team! ------------------------------- What should you know? --This is a commission-only sales position. You're not a W-2 employee. There is no hourly wage or salary. --You can work part-time or full-time. You set your own schedule. --This is remote work, from home or wherever you want to work. --We provide all the training, coaching, and mentorship you need. --You'll need a life and health insurance license as well as E&O liability insurance, which we'll show you how to get. So expect to invest a few hundred dollars getting started in the business. ------------------------------- How Much Can I Make? Everyone's results vary based on skill, amount of time invested, etc., but here is what we know to be very reasonably possible: --If you want to make $1,000 or $2,000 on the side, very part-time, you can do that. --Want to make $5,000 a month? You can do that. --Want to work full-time and make $10,000 to $15,000 OR MORE per month? You can do that. --Want to build a legacy business that changes life for you and your family for generations to come? You can do that. ***EARNINGS DISCLAIMER: No agent's success, earnings, or production results should be viewed as typical, average, or expected. Not all agents achieve the same or similar results, and no particular results are guaranteed. Your level of success will be determined by several factors, including the amount of work you put in, your ability to successfully follow and implement our training and sales system and engage with our lead system, and the insurance needs of the customers in the geographic areas in which you choose to work. ------------------------------- Two Paths You Can Choose PATH 1: You can earn good commissions helping families get the life insurance protection they need in place. PATH 2: You can earn good commissions selling life insurance AND build your own life insurance agency just like I've done, earning passive income every time anyone on your team makes a sale. ------------------------------- Frequently Asked Questions Is this is scam? It sounds too good to be true. I totally get it! We get asked that sometimes. I mean, you're reading this on Craigslist, after all. But the answer is no. It's exactly what you're reading here. It's a great business, in an incredible industry. Your success will require hard work, make no mistake. But it's very worth it. Still not sure this is legit? Why don't you follow the instructions at the bottom of this post and schedule an interview, meet us, and decide for yourself? Is there any base pay? No, this is a 100% commission-based position. This means there is no cap on what you can earn. Do I need an insurance license? Yes, and we'll show you how to get it. Will You Train Me? Yes! You'll receive both group training and one-on-one coaching and mentorship. I (Chris) know what it's like to start in this industry knowing absolutely nothing and having zero experience. I developed a sales training program for our agents that has now been adopted by dozens of other agencies and constantly receives rave reviews. It has been used by over 5,000 life insurance agents nationwide. Are You a Network Marketing Company? No. We are a life insurance brokerage selling products from major, national, A-rated carriers such as Mutual of Omaha, John Hancock, and AIG. Does this involve cold-calling or asking friends and family to buy insurance from me? No! We work leads…these are people who have responded to our marketing and asked an agent to contact them with some life insurance options. Do I have to pay for the leads? Yes. And you should first know that we do NOT make any money from agents buying leads. I buy them too, and we'll teach you how to work them successfully. Leads are priced in such a way that the typical agent, on average, is going to get at least about a 4-to-1 return for every dollar you invest in leads. Invest $100 in leads, put about $400 back in the bank in commissions. ------------------------------- To Learn More and to Apply To learn more and to apply, please visit https://chris.theleakeagency.com to schedule an interview. We look forward to connecting with you and seeing if we might be a good fit for what one another are looking for! . . . . .
