Pros

They have some of the best people in the country to learn from. It's really a privilege to be here in a comfortable environment that opens it's doors to anyone truly willing to learn & work for their opportunity. I've been in several sales jobs before where there is a lot of pressure to meet certain quotas. While there are definitely high standards at Avenue Alive Direct, their system is not complicated or cutthroat. It provides a way to truly learn and grow on your own, with the support of teammates and to reach your potential in greater aspects of leadership/management. I'm happy I joined the team.

Cons

Direct marketing is not complicated, but it is hard work. Meeting face-to-face with clients and earning someone's trust, while being able to close them and follow through on your commitment is not always easy. There is a level of resiliency and thick skin that is needed. It may not be for everyone, but I believe it is for anyone with an open mind who wants to work hard and actually achieve some great things.

Pros

Avenue Alive Direct offers a great training program for people who have never been in sales. Also the requirements to advance with the company are very clear. The management team has a real hands approach and meets with everyone regularly. I appreciate all the people I work, they really help me be accountable towards my goals, excited for the future in front of us.

Cons

Wouldn't really say, training is hands on, and expectations are clear.

Pros

I am a current employee at Avenue Alive Direct, and I am very happy with the overall experience I have had here so far. I have never done any type of marketing or sales in the past, so naturally I was a little nervous coming into the job. The one thing I realized very quickly was that you don’t need much experience in the marketing field to succeed in this company. They taught me everything I needed to know within my first week or so, and then once I got the hang of it I was much more confident in my abilities, and it really just came down to knowing how to build good relationships with people. Once I learned the basics I was even more excited to continue learning and taking on more responsibilities. The sales aspect of the job is not hard pressure sales, and it is something that is very easy to grasp, and actually pretty fun once you get the hang of it! I have earned promotions within the first few months here, and have also been able to coach and teach new people as well, which is now my favorite part of my job. I have fun at work, and I always have goals to work towards, and new things to learn. Even though I never pictured myself in a position like this, I am really happy with my job and the opportunities in the future that I’m working towards.

Cons

I honestly cant think of any negative aspects of my experience
