What are the responsibilities and job description for the Insurance Sales Agent — Build Your Book, Earn Renewals Forever position at Brightway Insurance, The Herd Agency?
Licensed Insurance Agent — Brightway, The Herd Agency (Middleburg, FL)
We're Brightway, The Herd Agency — a Brightway Insurance franchise based in Middleburg, FL — and we're looking for a licensed insurance agent who's hungry, self-motivated, and ready to build something real. We are open to an in-office role and/or a completely remote role.
This is a commission-only role — there is no base salary. Your income is 100% yours to drive, with no cap on what you can earn. The more you write, the more you make — and the policies you write today turn into passive renewal income for years to come.
What You'll Do
Quote and bind personal lines insurance policies — homeowners, auto, flood, general liability, and more
Build and grow your own book of business
Consult with clients to find the right coverage across Brightway's network of 80 carriers
Focus on selling — Brightway's internal service team handles policy servicing on the back end
What You Earn
This is a commission-only position. All commissions are calculated as a percentage of the
carrier commission — the dollar amount the insurance carrier pays to the agency on each
policy. Using agency averages ($2,025 avg premium, 12% avg carrier commission rate):
Transaction Your Split Per Policy Example
New Business 65% of carrier commission ~$158 per policy written
Re-Writes 15% of carrier commission ~$36 per policy re-written
Renewals 10% of carrier commission ~$24 per policy renewed
Renewal income is passive — it keeps coming in every year as long as your policies stay active
and you remain with the agency. Your book compounds over time.
Income potential by production level (Year 1):
4 policies/week → ~$32,800/year
8 policies/week → ~$65,700/year
12 policies/week → ~$98,600/year
Year 2 income grows significantly as your Year 1 book starts renewing. There is no ceiling.
Commissions are paid on the 15th and 30th of each month.
Recruiting Override Opportunity
Once your personal book of business reaches $1,000,000 in gross written premium, you
become eligible to bring another licensed agent into the agency — and earn an ongoing
override on their production, paid by the agency on top of their full commission:
New business they write 5% of carrier commission
Re-writes they produce 2.5% of carrier commission
Renewals they service 2.5% of carrier commission
This passive override income compounds as your recruit builds their own book. And if your
recruit ever leaves, their entire book of business transfers to you — you keep earning 10%
renewals on it indefinitely.
What We're Looking For
Active Florida 20-44 or 2-20 insurance license (required)
Self-starter with a sales-driven mindset
Strong communication skills and a professional approach to clients
Ability to meet a minimum production target of $20,000 in written premium per month
(3-month ramp-up grace period provided)
Must be able to provide your own computer equipment (Brightway tech team approval
required before purchase)
This role is for someone who:
Wants control of their income, not just earn a paycheck
Is ready to put in the work to build long-term passive income
Thrives in an independent, performance-driven environment
Pay: $33,000.00 - $99,000.00 per year
Benefits:
- Flexible schedule
- Work from home

- Would you be willing to work out of the Middleburg office for a small base salary in months 1-3 to train and learn?
- How much new business premium have you written in the last 12 months?

Salary : $33,000 - $99,000
