Work from home insurance agents market, sell, and manage insurance policies to customers. Instead of working in the office of an insurance agency or company, work from home insurance agents complete their tasks from home or another location outside of the office with internet connectivity. In this remote role, you may specialize in a specific type of insurance, such as medical, home, or auto insurance, or you may sell many different kinds of insurance. As a work from home insurance agent, your job duties are to identify the needs of the customer, recommend policies, and use an insurance sales system to process information provided by customers. Work from home insurance agents often take telephone calls, respond to email or chat, and attend in-person meetings with local customers. Outside of direct sales, you may also work as a customer service representative to answer questions, resolve problems with accounts, and ensure the continued purchase of your company's products.
