Pros
Job description/behaviors - Mylo’s speed to transaction, fast pace environment, lead distribution process allows you to operate and learn at 10x the pace of a traditional sales position. No cold calling, no lists, no door knock, no setting up meetings. The job is answering inbound qualified phone calls and is set up for you to learn and excel from the moment you get on the phones. You will be speaking with 7-15 customers a day, and interacting with the decision maker who is needing insurance the day of, tomorrow or within the week. Very rarely will the sales cycle be longer than a week. You will be interacting with business owners from a variety of different industries. Leverage Mylo’s technology to make you more efficient. Your job is to advise on coverages, identify risks, make recommendations and make sure the client is adequately protected. If you want to be successful in a role that is set up for winning, invest in your career. You will have training to prepare you. However, like any successful individual your 8-5 training for the first 6-8 weeks will give you the foundation but you need to go above and beyond to separate yourself. The average agent will win 25% of the businesses they interact with. Top performers will win 40%. It’s not luck, it’s knowledge/willingness to learn, time management, effort, it’s sales. Your compensation will reflect in how you perform in those behaviors. Give your best effort, interact with your co workers, be apart of the culture, get to know leadership, show up to work on time, be focused throughout the day, and go out of your way to learn. If you give 100% daily you will succeed. It is not a difficult job, after a year it will become very low stress if any. If you have drive and ambition, Mylo is the place for you to start your sales career.
Management opportunities - Sales manager positions are available for internal growth, however due to a smaller company size and timing being the biggest reason, like at majority of companies, those roles are limited. Select individuals will be considered.
Culture - friendly, collaborative, competitive, sales contests frequently, top performer lunches, pot lucks, holiday parties, casual attire, solid benefits.
CEO - walks the hallways daily, in office 95% of the days but working 100% of the days. Cares more about you as a person and your success than his self interests. Wants to mentor young professionals to be successful in their career. Get to know him.
Conclusion - Majority of the negative reviews are due to unrealistic expectations, poor behaviors, and lack of effort. This job prepares young professionals for future success. Commit 3-5 years of high performance or stay long term and be a consistent performer while having a good work life balance. Leverage your experiences and knowledge learned during your tenure and opportunities post Mylo will become available.
Cons
The job will not pay you a hundreds of thousands of dollars, It prepares you for the opportunity to do so.
