I found it immoral and sneaky

Pros

You won’t starve (if you don’t have rent to pay)

Cons

I’ve witnessed so many breaches of privacy. Every screen in new business sales was a yelp or similar directory and they would simply type in ‘flower business’ and ring every single number, just like somebody else did a few days before. There was no log of whether they had been called or weren’t interested, so they kept getting called. I would absolutely have considered it harassing. I also saw people scribbling down bank account details into notepads and haven’t let the customer know they’re doing that. I’ve seen other reviews from customers relating to storing card details when they say they haven’t and it is true that sometimes they were written down and not just entered into a billing platform. I was also pressured into selling unsuitable products/upsells to customers who I knew full well would not understand how to use them or it would be a waste of money for a small business who wouldn’t consider hundreds of pounds as small change. I found it quite immoral and I wouldn’t recommend it to anybody.
