Role: Insurance Sales Agent | 1099 Independent Contractor

Boca Raton, FL (In-Office Preferred) | Remote Flexibility | No Cold Calling

Shore Legacy Insurance is seeking sales people to join our team in Boca Raton. We are looking for motivated individuals who want a flexible sales opportunity with inbound client interest, training, and strong earning potential.

This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity for individuals who are self-motivated, comfortable speaking with people, and interested in helping clients understand insurance and benefit options.

About Shore Legacy Insurance

Shore Legacy Insurance helps individuals review and select insurance and benefit options, with a focus on supplemental health coverage, including home health care and hospital indemnity plans.

Our agents work with individuals who have already expressed interest in coverage or who are referred to us for assistance. That means you can focus on having meaningful conversations, understanding client needs, and helping people through the enrollment process.

What You’ll Do

As an Insurance Sales Agent, you will:

• Speak with individuals who contact the agency or are referred to us

• Explain available insurance and benefit options in a clear, professional way

• Help clients understand coverage that may fit their needs

• Guide interested clients through the enrollment process

• Follow up with prospective clients and maintain strong communication

• Participate in training and apply feedback to improve performance

Many agents choose to work from our Boca Raton office, but this role offers flexibility in how and where you work.

Why This Opportunity May Be a Good Fit

This opportunity is ideal for someone who wants:

• Inbound client opportunities instead of cold calling

• A flexible 1099 sales role

• Training and support while learning the insurance industry

• The ability to earn more based on performance

• A growing office with room for motivated agents to build momentum

• A client-focused role where communication and follow-through matter

Compensation

Compensation includes contractor pay of $20–$25 per hour for approved work hours, along with commissions on every completed enrollment. The average commission per enrollment is approximately $70, with most agents completing 10–12 enrollments per week. First-year agents typically earn between $75,000 and $100,000 annually, with top performers exceeding this range. The full compensation structure will be clearly explained prior to extending any offer. There is no required buy-in, inventory purchase, or paid lead package required to participate.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for people who are:

• Strong communicators

• Self-motivated and goal-oriented

• Comfortable in a performance-based environment

• Willing to learn, take feedback, and improve

• Professional, reliable, and client-focused

• Interested in sales, insurance, benefits, or helping people make informed decisions

Requirements

• Active insurance license or willingness to obtain one

• Individuals not yet licensed are encouraged to apply

• Prior sales, customer service, or client-facing experience is a plus

• Ability to communicate professionally with prospective clients

School Approval Notice

If you are a student seeking academic credit, internship credit, externship credit, or approval from a school, college, university, or academic program, you should confirm with your school before applying or accepting any opportunity. Any academic-credit approval, documentation, or eligibility requirements are the responsibility of the applicant and their school.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, sex, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, ancestry, age, disability, marital status, veteran status, military status, or any other status protected by applicable law.

Apply
