Insurance Positions Available

Insurance certainly isn’t a sexy business, but we think our business model is disruptive enough to bring substantial career excitement in a boring industry.

Business Insurance Sales

Insurance sales to businesses is an interesting career path because it’s not really “sales”. While you must be the type of person that can open new doors and introduce yourself to strangers, it’s not like you’re really selling anything at all because every business has to have insurance. You’re simply replacing the other agent with you and your insurance quote. Selling commercial insurance is a relationship business, not a hard-sell business, so if you’re great at creating relationships and taking care of people, we should talk.
