  • At ease with web-based tools and a CRM
  • Straightforward with clients, because trust is the whole business
  • At least 18 and legally authorized to work in the United States
What we provide
  • Contracts with 43 carriers, which gives you real options for every family you serve
  • Exclusive lead systems built for people who've already raised their hand about coverage
  • Direct mentorship from Ben and Andrea, who run the agency
  • A weekly team call, with call reviews, scripts, and ride-alongs available
The honest part

Compensation: paid under an independent contractor (1099) contract. If you want hands-off ownership with no daily effort, this isn't the right fit. Apply through this listing; questions: (928) 889-6338.
