100% Commission Life Insurance Sales Rep (1099) — This Ad Will Filter Most People Out. Good.
G-Rated Financial | Schaumburg, IL area | Remote/Phone Sales | 1099 Independent Contractor
Read This Before You Apply
Most job posts are written to attract as many applicants as possible. This one is written to attract exactly one type of person — and repel everyone else.
If you're looking for a salary, a 9-to-5, and a comfortable seat — close this tab. No hard feelings. This isn't it.
But if you've ever had a vision in your head so big that people called you crazy for chasing it... if you're the type who bets on yourself when nobody else will... keep reading. This might be the door you've been looking for.
What This Is
A 100% commission, 1099 independent contractor sales position with a starting comp rate of 85% — and room to climb. No cap on your income. No ceiling on your growth. What you put in is what you get out. Period.
You will be trained personally by some of the highest-level sales professionals in the area — people who have already done what you're trying to do. This isn't a "watch a video and figure it out" operation. You'll get real mentorship, real reps, and real training every step of the way.
And here's the part nobody tells you in a job ad: the money is only half of it. The person you become doing this — the discipline, the confidence, the personal growth you never saw coming — that's the real paycheck. This job is an opportunity to see the beauty life has within, if you're willing to put your all into yourself.
Who I'm Looking For
I'm not looking for experience. I'm looking for character:
- Coachable. You check your ego at the door and let people who've done it show you how.
- Hard-working. 9–12 hour days, 6 days a week. That's the standard, not the exception. If that number scared you, this isn't your job.
- A little delusional — in the best way. I want someone chasing a vision in their head that nobody else can see yet. Someone who keeps chasing it through the hard times, does everything to make it real, and refuses to let go of it no matter what.
- Consistent. Motivation fades. The ones who win are the ones who show up anyway.
The Honest Truth (No Sugar-Coating)
I'm going to tell you upfront what most agencies bury in the fine print. You have to spend money to make money in this business. Here's exactly what getting started looks like:
- Interview first. We talk. I make sure you're actually the right fit for this before you spend a dollar.
- Complete required webinars and trainings. You'll receive a voucher code that makes the courses free.
- Pass the state license test. The exams cost $90 total (both tests) each attempt.
- Get your Illinois license. The initial license fee runs roughly $200–$300, renewed yearly. You'll be getting a LOT of training during this entire phase — you won't be doing it alone.
- Get on the phones. Once licensed, it's go time.
- Lead spend. I recommend coming in with $1,500–$2,000 set aside for quality leads. Quality leads are the fuel of this business — this is your investment in your own pipeline, and it's the difference between grinding and winning.
If reading that list made you flinch, that's okay — it just means this isn't for you. If reading it made you think "that's a small price for an uncapped income and a new life," — you're exactly who I'm looking for.
The Bottom Line
- 100% commission (1099), starting at 85% comp
- Elite training and mentorship from top producers
- Uncapped income — you write your own paycheck
- Personal growth you never expected
- 9–12 hour days, 6 days a week
- Licensing process required (details above — fully transparent)
I can't promise you easy. I can promise you that if you put your all into yourself, take the risk on yourself, and believe in yourself no matter what — consistently chasing the vision — you will succeed.
