How much do agent 1099 jobs pay per year?

As of Jun 10, 2026, the average yearly pay for agent 1099 in the United States is $74,131.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $35,000.00 and $90,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What should I expect in terms of schedule flexibility and work structure as an Agent 1099?

As an Agent 1099, you operate as an independent contractor, which means you generally have the flexibility to set your own schedule and manage your daily tasks. While you may need to coordinate meetings or calls during standard business hours to accommodate clients or team needs, much of your work can be completed on your own terms. The independent nature of the role requires strong time management skills and self-motivation, as you are responsible for driving your own productivity and results. This structure can offer excellent work-life balance, but it also means you must proactively manage your workflow and client outreach to achieve your goals.

What is an Agent 1099 job?

An Agent 1099 job refers to a position where an individual works as an independent contractor rather than an employee. This means they are responsible for their own taxes, benefits, and business expenses. Agent 1099 roles are common in industries like sales, real estate, and insurance, where professionals earn commissions instead of a fixed salary. Since they are self-employed, they have more flexibility but also need to manage their own financial and operational responsibilities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Agent 1099 position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Agent 1099, you need strong self-motivation, sales acumen, and a solid understanding of independent contractor requirements, often supported by prior experience in sales or customer service roles. Familiarity with CRM software, prospecting tools, and an understanding of tax documentation for independent contractors (such as IRS Form 1099) are typically important. Excellent communication, networking, and organization skills help you build client relationships and manage your workload efficiently. These attributes are essential for meeting sales targets, managing your own business operations, and succeeding in a commission-driven, independent work environment.

Job description

Description:Independent Freight Agent (1099) – Nationwide | Unlimited Earning Potential


If you’re an experienced Freight Agent with a transferable book of business, this is the platform that lets you scale it. Sims Global Solutions is expanding our national 1099 Agent Network and looking for proven producers who want more support, more freedom, and more money in their pocket.

This is a 1099 Independent Contractor role for experienced Freight Agents only.


Why Top Agents Choose Sims Global Solutions

You operate as your own boss — but you’re never on your own.

We built an agent-first model with real operational support, industry-leading technology, and a completely unsaturated agent market. Our agents consistently grow their book 40–50% faster here than at many other 3PLs.

If you’re tired of:

  • Slow carrier onboarding
  • Limited support
  • Outdated systems
  • Commission structures that don’t reward your work

…you’ll feel the difference on day one.


Position Summary

As an Independent Freight Agent (1099), you’ll work remotely and represent Sims Global Solutions under our brokerage authority. You’ll leverage your existing customer relationships to move Truckload and LTL freight while we handle all back-office operations, including billing, collections, claims, carrier compliance, and customer setup.

You focus on selling and servicing your customers. We handle the rest.

Agents who consistently develop and manage their accounts routinely earn six figures and beyond.


What You Bring
  • 3+ years of proven Freight Agent experience
  • A developed, transferable book of business
  • Strong hunter mentality and consistent outbound activity
  • Ability to negotiate rates with customers and carriers
  • Experience using CRM tools (HubSpot preferred but not required)
  • Professional communication and follow-through with shippers, carriers, and dispatchers
  • Organized daily workflow with proactive follow-up and appointment setting
What Sims Provides to Help You WinIndustry-Leading Technology
  • Fully integrated TMS + CRM + Marketing automation
  • Client setup in seconds with customer portal access
  • Digital tracking, freight matching, and bulk rate integrations
  • E-commerce and WMS integrations
  • Carrier onboarding & vetting software with internal load board
  • Multi-modal capabilities: TL, LTL, Expedited, Intermodal, Drayage, Warehousing, Fulfillment
Agent-Centric Support Structure


Choose the model that fits your business:

  • Sell-only model: Our internal operations team handles all back-office work
  • Bring-your-team model: Bring your operations staff and earn a higher commission split
Financial & Operational Advantages
  • Completely unsaturated agent market
  • Unlimited earning potential
  • A+ rated supplemental cargo insurance for high-value freight
  • Dedicated claims department
  • Company-paid client risk insurance
  • Strong financial stability and fast carrier payments (90,000+ carriers in network)
Culture & Perks
  • Access to full benefits package
  • In-house training and coaching
  • Tax consulting for write-off guidance
  • Company-paid rewards for top agents
  • Annual company conferences
  • Marketing materials, sales support, company email, and full TMS/CRM access
