Insurance Sales Agent

The Opportunity

As a Financed Agent with Rural Mutual Insurance, you will build and grow a book of business across Wisconsin. This is not a traditional sales job with a quota and a manager looking over your shoulder. It is an opportunity with structure, support, and a clear path to long-term growth.

What Building Your Career Looks Like

• Build relationships with individuals, families, farmers, and business owners
• Identify customer risks and match them with the right insurance solutions
• Build referral networks with local professionals, lenders, and community leaders
• Participate in community organizations and local events
• Create and execute a business plan with support from your manager
• Grow a book of business that generates long-term, recurring revenue

Compensation And Growth

• Financed Agents receive a base salary along with commissions and bonuses
• Most new agents start around $48,000 in salary, with additional earnings from commissions and bonuses
• First-year average earnings typically fall in the $75,000 to $85,000 range, with upside on income potential
• Agents who commit to the process and invest in their community see significant income growth in years two and three

Rural Mutual

• Has served Wisconsin exclusively for more than 90 years
• Underwriting decisions made by people who know Wisconsin
• Deep credibility with the farming, small business, and rural communities you will serve
• A trusted brand that opens doors in communities where reputation is everything
• Commercial and farm product depth that creates real opportunity beyond personal lines

What We Provide To Set You Up For Success

• Comprehensive licensing support and pre-licensing training
• Structured onboarding and a clearly defined ramp period
• One-on-one coaching from an experienced manager
• Marketing resources, tools, and ongoing development programs
• Access to underwriting professionals who work alongside you
• A community of agents across Wisconsin invested in each other's success

Why This Is Not the Right Fit

• Looking for a predictable routine
• A capped salary
• A role where showing up is enough

What It Takes To Succeed

• Driven by relationships, not transactions
• Comfortable with accountability and honest about your performance
• Active in your community or eager to become a recognized part of it
• Resilient enough to keep going when the first month is harder than you expected
• Forward-thinking enough to treat this like the business it is, not a job
• Coachable enough to follow a proven system while it is still new to you
