What is a remote contractor?

Remote contractors are independent professionals or freelancers who work for companies or clients from a location outside of the traditional office setting, often from their own home or a co-working space. They are typically hired for specific projects or tasks and are not considered employees, which means they manage their own taxes, benefits, and work schedule. Remote contractors use digital communication tools to collaborate with teams and deliver results across a variety of industries, such as IT, marketing, writing, and design. This arrangement provides flexibility for both the contractor and the hiring company.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote contractor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Contractor, strong time management, self-motivation, and relevant domain expertise are essential, often supported by proven experience or industry-specific credentials. Familiarity with collaboration tools like Slack, Zoom, and project management platforms such as Asana or Trello is typically required. Excellent written communication, adaptability, and problem-solving skills help remote contractors stand out in virtual environments. These skills and qualities ensure productivity, reliability, and effective collaboration when working independently from various locations.

How does communication typically work for remote contractors collaborating with distributed teams?

Remote contractors usually communicate with their teams via digital platforms such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, or Zoom. It is common to participate in regular virtual meetings, submit progress updates, and coordinate tasks through project management tools. Since contractors often work across time zones, clear and timely communication is essential to stay aligned with team goals and project deadlines. Being proactive in sharing your availability and progress helps ensure smooth collaboration and fosters trust within the team.

Freelancers work independently across multiple clients, offering flexibility but less long-term stability. Both roles are popular in remote work, but they differ in work structure and employer relationships.

Job description

Licensed Life Insurance Agent

100% Remote  |  Uncapped Commissions

Taubman Financial Management

 

●      Location: Remote (Work from anywhere)

●      Compensation: 1099 Independent Contractor — Commission Only, Uncapped

●      Job Type: Independent Contractor (1099)

About the Opportunity

Taubman Financial Management is looking for licensed life insurance agents who are ready to stop doing administrative busy work and start doing what they do best: selling and advising. This is a 1099 independent contractor, commission-only opportunity — we've built a fully automated back-office system that handles the paperwork, lead delivery, policy processing, and follow-up logistics — so you can spend your time in front of clients, not buried in admin tasks.

Whether you want to run as a solo producer or build and lead your own team, the path is yours to choose.

If you're a self-motivated agent who wants uncapped earning potential, a flexible remote schedule, and the infrastructure to dynamically scale your book of business, this is built for you.

About Taubman Financial Management

Taubman Financial Management was built on a simple belief: agents perform best when they're empowered to sell, not slowed down by systems that weren't designed for them. We've invested heavily in automation and infrastructure most agencies don't offer, giving our team a real competitive edge in the field — faster lead flow, less friction, and more time in front of clients.

Our leadership team is hands-on and invested in agent success, offering mentorship and support drawn from years of production experience in the life insurance industry. We've built a culture around performance, integrity, and long-term growth — for our clients and for our agents. When you join Taubman Financial Management, you're joining an organization that's genuinely invested in helping you build a sustainable, scalable career, not just fill a seat.

What You'll Do

●      Consult with clients to assess their life insurance and financial protection needs

●      Present and sell life insurance products tailored to each client's situation

●      Build long-term client relationships through honest, needs-based advising

●      Work leads delivered through our automated system — no cold prospecting required

●      Close business remotely via phone, video, or digital application tools

●      Grow as a solo producer, or recruit and build your own team — the choice is yours

What We Provide

●      Fully automated system – lead generation, appointment setting, e-applications, and policy tracking are handled for you

●      100% remote – work from anywhere, on a schedule that works for you

●      Uncapped commissions – as a 1099 contractor, your income is determined entirely by your production — no ceiling

●      Flexible growth path – build as a solo producer or lead your own team, whichever fits your goals

●      Ongoing training and support – product training, sales scripts, and mentorship from top producers

●      No admin burden – we've eliminated the busywork so you can focus on selling and consulting

Build a Team, Build Your Income

Want to grow beyond individual production? Taubman Financial Management gives you a real path to build and lead your own team:

●      Override commissions – earn on the production of agents you recruit and develop

●      Formal leadership tracks – advance through defined titles and levels as your team grows

●      Recruiting incentives – earn bonuses for bringing on new licensed agents

●      Ongoing leadership support – guidance and mentorship as you transition from producer to team builder

Solo production or team leadership — both paths offer uncapped upside, and you decide which one (or both) fits your goals.

What We're Looking For

●      Active life insurance license (required)

●      Strong communication and consultative sales skills

●      Self-driven, coachable, and comfortable working independently as a 1099 contractor

●      Comfortable with commission-only, performance-based income

●      Interest in either individual production or team building/leadership

●      Prior experience in life insurance, financial services, or a related sales role preferred

●      Reliable internet connection and a quiet space for client calls

Why Agents Choose Taubman Financial Management

We believe agents should be salespeople and consultants — not paperwork processors. Our automated infrastructure removes the friction so you can focus on relationships, conversations, and closing business — whether you're building your own book solo or growing a team under you — with unlimited commission potential and full control as an independent contractor.
