Inside Sales to $75,000, Life Quotes in Darien

About the Job

Inside Sales to $75,000  


 


Summary:  Award-winning Life Quotes, Inc. (formerly Insure.com) has immediate openings for in-house life


insurance sales agents at our Darien, IL headquarters call center.  Our team of 60 in-house


agents is now expanding to 100 to accommodate our growth.


 


We’ll also consider new college graduates with sales experience.


As an in-house Account Executive, you’ll receive 10-15 fresh, incoming life insurance leads per


day, which are produced from our $6 million national advertising campaign. We also have a


contract to handle all life insurance for GEICO, so we’re really busy!


 


After these prospects contact you, you will spend the majority of your day staying in touch with


these leads, advising them and writing orders. In this model, you will write 80-90 applications


per month after a training period of about 60 days.  


 


This fast-paced, call center, insurance sales position requires you to adhere to set scripts and


procedures at all times as quality control is paramount in our shop.


 


We’re currently ranked #1 life insurance site by Kiplinger's (Dec. 2008), a "Top 100 Most


Useful Website" by MSN Money (April 2009) and we have an A+ rating from the Better


Business Bureau! 


 


Our 25-company database makes it fast and easy to sell policies even when applicants have health problems.

  • Plus... we have excellent company-paid health insurance, matching 401(k) and paid holidays 




Onsite Time Commitment: 40-45 hrs. per week is typical.  We're also open nights and weekends adn we rotate our agents for those shifts to be fair to all.
