About the job

Position: Outbound Sales Representative (Cold Caller)

Schedule: Mountain Standard Time (Dayshift) (Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm MST)

Join us in establishing a robust outbound sales operation as a dedicated and results-oriented Sales Development Representative (Cold Caller) supporting our insurance-focused sales team. This position primarily involves outbound prospecting and setting appointments for licensed insurance professionals.

In this role, you will engage potential customers, assess their insurance needs, pre-qualify prospects, and schedule high-quality appointments that lead to policy sales. This is not your typical call-center position. We seek confident communicators who can think critically, build trust quickly, and thrive in a regulated insurance environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct high-volume outbound prospecting via phone and email
  • Adhere to structured outreach sequences, call scripts, and qualification frameworks
  • Engage with prospects to identify insurance needs, coverage gaps, and eligibility
  • Pre-qualify prospects by gauging interest level, readiness to make decisions, and timing
  • Schedule confirmed, qualified appointments for licensed insurance agents
  • Maintain precise records in CRM systems
  • Consistently meet or surpass performance metrics, including daily call targets of 100–200+ calls
  • Conduct follow-up and reminder calls prior to scheduled appointments
  • Proactively communicate with internal sales stakeholders about appointment statuses
  • Manage reschedules and no-shows, which can be common in insurance sales

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience in cold calling, SDR, or outbound appointment setting roles
  • Excellent spoken and written English, with the ability to communicate confidently with U. S. consumers
  • Strong skills in objection handling and guiding conversations toward next steps
  • Coachable and disciplined, capable of adhering to scripts and qualification guidelines
  • Results-oriented mindset with a strong sense of accountability
  • Comfortable with CRM systems, dialers, and sales tools
  • Experience in setting appointments that lead to closed insurance policies is highly desirable

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in insurance, financial services, or other regulated sales environments
  • Familiarity with insurance products such as health, life, auto, home, or supplemental coverage
  • Experience working with U. S.-based prospects
  • Prior experience with CRM tools, dialing platforms, Google Sheets, Slack, or similar sales software

Benefits

If you are a detail-oriented, strategic financial expert who excels at enhancing business profitability and financial soundness, we would love to hear from you!
