Outbound Lead Generation Specialist – Part Time
We are looking for a high-energy, motivated individual to join our State Farm agency in a part-time outbound sales and lead-generation role.
This is a high-volume outbound calling position designed for someone who is comfortable picking up the phone, talking to new people, handling rejection, and consistently working toward measurable goals.
This position may be especially appealing to someone who wants a consistent part-time schedule while also having the opportunity to earn additional income based on performance.
COMPENSATION & SCHEDULE
-
$15/hour base pay
-
Performance-based bonus opportunities tied to individual production and results
-
$18–$22+/hour earning potential with performance bonuses
- Approximately 20–25 hours per week
- Increased bonus opportunities at higher production levels
This position is designed to reward results. Base pay provides consistent hourly compensation, while our bonus structure allows productive team members to increase their effective hourly earnings.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Make a high volume of outbound calls to prospective customers during scheduled working hours.
- Introduce prospective customers to our agency and generate interest in State Farm insurance products and services.
- Identify potential customer needs and generate qualified sales opportunities for our licensed team.
- Consistently follow up with prospects who may require multiple contacts.
- Maintain a high level of energy and effort throughout each calling shift.
- Accurately document calls, conversations, follow-ups, and prospect information in our CRM system.
- Meet established expectations for call volume, lead generation, and production based on scheduled hours.
- Follow State Farm guidelines and applicable compliance requirements.
- Contribute to the overall growth and production goals of the agency.
WHO WILL DO WELL IN THIS ROLE
This position may be a good fit if you:
- Enjoy talking to people and are comfortable starting conversations.
- Are not easily discouraged by rejection.
- Can maintain energy and focus during concentrated periods of high-volume calling.
- Are competitive and motivated by measurable results.
- Like having clear expectations and knowing exactly what you're working toward.
- Are comfortable being held accountable for activity and production.
- Can hear "no," move on, and approach the next conversation with the same energy.
- Are motivated by the opportunity to increase your income through performance.
QUALIFICATIONS
- Strong communication and telephone skills.
- High energy, self-motivation, and a consistent work ethic.
- Ability to confidently make a high volume of outbound calls.
- Ability to handle rejection and quickly move on to the next opportunity.
- Goal-oriented and comfortable working toward measurable performance expectations.
- Organized and able to manage prospects and follow-ups.
- Coachable and willing to learn scripts, objection handling, insurance basics, and our agency's sales process.
- Comfortable learning and using CRM and phone systems.
- Previous telemarketing, outbound sales, appointment setting, lead generation, or similar experience is preferred but not required.
Insurance experience is not required. We're more interested in finding someone with the right energy, resilience, communication skills, and work ethic who is willing to learn.
WHAT TO EXPECT
This is not a traditional customer-service position. The primary responsibility is outbound prospecting and generating new business opportunities.
The work is fast-paced and repetitive, and rejection is a normal part of the job. The right person can stay focused, continue making calls, and maintain a positive approach throughout their shift.
For someone who enjoys talking to people, likes measurable goals, and wants a part-time position with performance-based earning potential, this can be a great fit.
Compensation: $15.00 per hour
