Independent Life Insurance Agents

Build a business you can run from anywhere.

Kindred Life Group trains and equips licensed life insurance agents to build their own book of business remotely, on their own schedule, with a proven system behind them.

  • Warm, inbound leads
  • Phone & video sales
  • No territory
The Opportunity

What we actually do

We sell mortgage protection and cash-value life insurance (IUL and whole life) to families who asked for information about it. That part matters more than anything else about the job.

Warm leads, not cold calls

Every person you talk to filled out a request for mortgage protection or life insurance information. They asked to be contacted. You're calling them back.

Phone and video sales

The full process, from first call to submitted application, happens over the phone or on video. There's no driving to kitchen tables and no territory. You can work from anywhere with a laptop and a phone.

Products people need

Mortgage protection is simple and urgent. It protects the house. Cash-value life insurance leads to bigger conversations about retirement and tax strategy with those same families.

Read This Before You Apply

This is entrepreneurship.

“This is you starting a business. This is entrepreneurship. It’s one of the lowest barrier-to-entry businesses you can get into, but make no mistake, it’s you starting a business. We give you the blueprint to financial freedom.”

You are a 1099 independent agent, paid by commission only. You own your book of business and you own your schedule. Nobody is going to manage you, and nobody is going to hand you a paycheck for showing up. What you build is yours, and so are your results.

Here's what "starting a business" means here:

  • You invest in leads. That's your inventory, and it's how the business grows.
  • You show up daily. Dials, appointments, follow-up, and training, every day. Consistency is what separates the agents who make it from the ones who don't.
  • You follow the system. It has been run thousands of times and it works. Don't try to reinvent it in your first month.
  • Low barrier to entry. A state life insurance license (a few weeks of study and a few hundred dollars), a laptop, a phone, and a lead budget. That's the startup cost.
  • High responsibility. Commission only. There is no salary, base, or hourly rate. If you don't work, you don't get paid. If you do, nobody caps what you earn.
  • Real ownership. Your clients, your renewals, and your schedule belong to you. You can build a team later if you want to, and you can skip it if you don't. It's your business.
  • A blueprint, not a promise. We give you the leads, the scripts, the CRM, and the coaching. You bring the work.
Income

What agents earn

Agents on our team and in our network typically earn anywhere from $10,000 to $40,000 per month, and some earn more. Where you land depends on your work ethic, your schedule, and how consistently you run the system.

How the math works

Life insurance agents are paid a commission based on the annual premium of each policy they write. Your commission percentage is set by your contract level with each carrier. Here's an illustrative example of what a month of consistent mortgage protection work can look like:

Policies written
10 / month
Mortgage protection
Annual premium
~$1,500 to $3,000
Per policy, varies by client
Contract level
100%+
Of annual premium

Ten policies at those premiums, at a 100%+ contract level, puts a full-time agent in the range above before lead costs and chargebacks. Write more policies, larger policies, or add cash-value business and the number goes up. Write less and it goes down. Everyone gets the same system, and the results come down to what you do with it.

Income disclosure: These figures are illustrative and reflect the results of some agents, not typical or guaranteed results. Agents are independent 1099 contractors paid by commission only; there is no salary. Your earnings depend on your effort, licensing, lead investment, and sales. Many agents earn less; some earn nothing. Kindred Life Group makes no guarantee of income.
Is This You?

Who this is for, and who it isn't

We'd rather lose a recruit than waste six months of your life. Be honest with yourself here.

This is for you if you're…

  • A self-starter who doesn't need someone standing over you to get moving
  • Someone who wants ownership of your time and your income
  • Coachable, and willing to run the system before you try to improve it
  • Comfortable on the phone, or willing to get comfortable fast
  • Ready to invest in yourself: your license, your leads, your skills

This is not for you if you…

  • Want a salary, a base, or an hourly rate
  • Want to be managed, scheduled, and told what to do each day
  • Aren't willing to buy leads and treat them like inventory
  • Won't show up daily, especially on the days it's not fun
  • Are looking for something passive or "easy money"
The Blueprint

What you get when you join

Everything you need to be successful, already built and ready for you to plug into.

Top-level carrier contracts

Contracts with multiple A-rated carriers at top contract levels, so you're paid well from your first policy.

A warm-lead system

Proven scripts

Word-for-word scripts for mortgage protection and for whole life / financial conversations. Tested on thousands of calls.

Full CRM with automated text and email follow-up sequences done for you. Leads drop in, the follow-up starts, and you focus on conversations.

About

Meet Sam Holmes

Founder & Licensed Insurance Producer

Sam spent 14+ years building and running businesses before insurance, including pool service companies he grew from a truck and a route into real operations with employees and payroll. He knows what starting from zero feels like, and he knows how much time gets wasted when nobody hands you a system.

He created Kindred Life Group to give budding entrepreneurs the blueprint he wished he'd had: warm leads, real scripts, a CRM that does the follow-up, and someone in your corner every day. Kindred Life Group is the agency and recruiting arm of Kindred Legacy Life, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, with agents working remotely across multiple states.

FAQ

Straight answers

Yes. You need a life insurance license in your home state to sell. If you don't have one, we'll walk you through the pre-licensing course, the exam, and the application. Most people finish in 2 to 4 weeks. Already licensed? You can move straight to contracting.

No. There is no fee to join Kindred Life Group. What you pay for is your own business: your state license and exam (typically a few hundred dollars), any carrier appointment fees, and your leads. We don't sell you training packages or "starter kits."

You can start part-time, and plenty of agents do while they keep a job. Just be realistic: part-time effort produces part-time results, and leads need to be called back quickly. If you can block consistent evening and weekend hours and protect them, it works. If your plan is "when I get around to it," it won't work.

This is a commission-based independent insurance agency model. You are paid on your own sales to real clients who buy real insurance policies from licensed carriers. Nobody makes money from you joining, and there is nothing to buy from us. Building a team is optional: if you choose to recruit and train agents, you earn an override on their production, which is how agencies in this industry have worked for decades. Some people call any structure with overrides an "MLM." We would rather explain exactly how it works and let you decide what to call it.

Anywhere with a reliable internet connection and a quiet place to take calls. Sales happen by phone and video, and there's no territory. You'll need a license in the states you sell into; we'll help you figure out which ones make sense as you grow.

No. Every lead you work is someone who requested information about mortgage protection or life insurance. You still have to pick up the phone and dial (a lot), and not everyone will remember filling out the form, but you're never calling a list of strangers who never asked.
