Build Your Career With Farmers Insurance

Farmers Insurance – Bill Matlock Agency is looking for professional, motivated, and coachable individuals who want to learn, grow, and build a long term career in the insurance industry.

You do not need insurance experience to get started. We are looking for people with the right attitude, strong work ethic, professionalism, and willingness to learn .

We provide the training, licensing support, systems, coaching, and leads. You bring the commitment and effort to follow the program, develop your skills, and succeed.

For someone with ambition and an entrepreneurial mindset, this opportunity can also provide a foundation for significant career growth, including the potential to pursue becoming a Farmers Insurance agent and business owner in the future.

Earn While You Learn

Your development begins from day one, and so does your pay.

From your first day, you will earn a base salary while training and working toward your insurance licenses.

During approximately your first two months, getting licensed is priority number one . We provide a structured roadmap that has successfully helped team members prepare for their licensing exams and progress into their roles.

We provide:

  • Dedicated time to study and prepare for licensing
  • A structured licensing roadmap
  • Training and study resources
  • Coaching and progress support
  • Guidance throughout the licensing process

You are paid while you learn and prepare to become licensed. We provide the structure and support. Your responsibility is to show up, follow the program, study, and remain coachable.

We Provide the Leads

Once you transition into the sales portion of your role, we provide current leads and prospects for you to contact .

This is an inside sales position .

  • No door knocking
  • No neighborhood canvassing
  • No purchasing your own leads
  • No building a prospect list from scratch

We provide the opportunities so you can focus on developing relationships, understanding customer needs, following up, presenting solutions, and closing business.

Training and Development

Getting licensed is only the beginning. We continue investing in your development as you grow into the role.

You will receive training and coaching on:

  • Insurance products and coverage
  • Software and systems
  • Customer conversations
  • Proven scripts and conversation guides
  • Asking the right questions
  • Presenting insurance solutions
  • Following up effectively
  • Handling common questions and concerns
  • Building confidence and improving your sales skills

We help teach you what to say, how to say it, and how to confidently guide customers through the sales process .

A Career With Room to Grow

We view this position as more than simply an insurance sales job.

Your first goal is to learn the business, become licensed, and develop into a successful insurance sales professional. From there, strong performance, continued development, and ambition can open the door to additional opportunities.

Future opportunities may include:

  • Increased earning potential
  • Greater responsibility within the organization
  • Leadership and professional advancement
  • Continued development within the insurance industry
  • Potential opportunities to pursue becoming a Farmers Insurance agent
  • For qualified individuals, a potential path toward owning and operating your own insurance agency

Not everyone who joins us needs to want to own a business. However, an entrepreneurial mindset and an interest in potentially becoming a business owner someday are qualities we value and consider a plus .

For the right person, this position can provide an opportunity to learn the insurance business from the ground up while developing the sales, customer service, leadership, and business skills that can help prepare you for greater opportunities in the future.

What You'll Do

As you complete your licensing and training, you will gradually transition into your sales responsibilities:

  • Contact agency-provided leads and prospects by phone and video
  • Build relationships and understand customer needs
  • Present appropriate insurance products and coverage options
  • Follow up consistently with prospective customers
  • Manage the sales process from initial conversation through policy placement
  • Maintain accurate customer and sales records
  • Participate in ongoing coaching and professional development
  • Work with the team to provide a positive customer experience

Who We're Looking For

Experience is a plus, but attitude, professionalism, coachability, and motivation matter most to us .

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is professional and dependable
  • Has a positive attitude and strong work ethic
  • Is coachable and open to feedback
  • Enjoys learning and developing new skills
  • Communicates confidently and professionally
  • Enjoys talking with and helping people
  • Is organized and follows through
  • Is motivated by goals and results
  • Wants to build a career and continue advancing
  • Has ambition and an interest in taking on greater responsibility
  • May have an entrepreneurial mindset or interest in business ownership in the future

Previous sales, customer service, or insurance experience is a plus, but it is not required.

Requirements

  • Must be authorized to work in the United States
  • Valid driver's license and reliable personal vehicle
  • Mobile device and reliable home internet access
  • Ability and willingness to obtain required insurance licensing
  • Commitment to completing the licensing and training program

Compensation

Base Salary + Commission

Expected earning potential: $40,000–$75,000 annually , based on performance.

As your knowledge, confidence, and results grow, so can your earning potential and opportunities for advancement.

Why Farmers Insurance?
