Title: CPT-10969 Appointment Setting & Outbound Calling Virtual Assistant (Insurance Leads)

Independent Contractor – Business Support VA / Junior to Advanced Level (Remote).

Overview

20four7VA is seeking offshore independent contractors to deliver remote services to clients worldwide, with a primary focus on developed markets such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia.

We are seeking a confident and results-driven Virtual Assistant to support a health insurance advisor by conducting outbound calls to warm leads and scheduling appointments.

The VA will be responsible for contacting individuals who have already expressed interest in health insurance, engaging them in conversation, and successfully booking appointments for the client.

This role is strictly focused on appointment setting — no quoting or sales closing experience is required.

The ideal candidate is comfortable with high-volume dialing, strong objection handling, and maintaining a professional, friendly tone on every call.

The objective of each engagement is to assist the client in improving business efficiency, enhancing service delivery, or supporting operational functions through high-quality, task-specific services rendered by a qualified contractor.

  • Handle common objections professionally (e.g., “not interested,” “no time”)

Lead Management & Follow-Ups

  • Reattempt contact for missed or unresponsive leads
  • Work through large lead lists systematically (including older leads)
  • Prioritize new leads while maintaining follow-up cadence on existing ones

Documentation & CRM Updates

  • Log call outcomes, notes, and appointment details accurately
  • Update lead statuses within the client’s system
  • Maintain organized and up-to-date records of all interactions

  • Work within lead management platforms (and possibly VanillaSoft)
  • Adapt quickly to client tools and workflows
