Pros

- The fellow sales employees are extremely nice and they are very keen on training. - If you like working alone this is perfect for you.

Cons

- The job description is very inaccurate. - This is a business to business, door to door sales job. - During the interviews the management will entice you buy pushing the notion "work hard make a lot of money" when they are making most of it. - Expected to learn the whole business in one week and then you are out on your own to figure it out. - Must have your own car - gas is NOT reimbursed. -This above con + almost no businesses wanting to cooperate means most of the 500 dollar base pay per week will be used for gas. - 30 minutes in office at 8:00 am, and then 8:30 am - 5:00 pm in your car every day only 15 minutes for lunch.
