Insurance Agent
About The Position
Shelter Insurance is seeking an exceptional entrepreneur to make a difference in Knoxville, TN and become our newest Shelter Insurance Agent. This role is ideal for individuals with a desire to meet new people, develop new contacts, become known in their community, and who are passionate about serving their community. If you want to grow your sales, business, and networking skills, control your own income, and start your own business without extreme start-up costs, this is a great opportunity. Shelter does not require previous insurance industry experience; backgrounds in real estate, retail sales, education, and coaching are common among successful agents. A motivated attitude, an entrepreneurial spirit, and skilled capacity for effectively communicating with clients in a sales atmosphere are required. While some sales experience and a degree with general business courses are helpful, comprehensive training is provided. Shelter does not require prospective agents to have capital/assets on hand, nor do they "sell" or "loan" money to agents to begin their business. The primary expectations are meeting sufficient sales requirements and core business proficiencies. Financial responsibilities are limited to unsatisfied bills owed upon departure. A true business owner’s mindset is required. While developing prospects and selling Shelter products will be the main focus, there is an opportunity to bring on staff for administrative duties and sales support. This is an opportunity to explore a partnership with Shelter Insurance Companies if you have a strong desire to be a business owner, a vigorous passion for helping people, and a desire to work for a company that strives to be a leader in its communities. Shelter has one of the top new-agent programs in the insurance industry, offering support to launch your insurance sales career.
