Pros

You learn sales skills. It’s a fantastic way to gain a foothold into sales.

Cons

The company offers a better deal than the sales reps promo codes. All sales are B2C with no B2B opportunity. No tracking KPI’s and retention rate. Mall kiosk’s are primarily the location. The commission structure isn’t ideal. No way of tracking your own sales.

Thank you for the time for reviewing your time HelloFresh. We are glad that HelloFresh prepared you for a career in sales; we take our training and on-the-job experience seriously! Our Brand Ambassadors have a competitive discount for customers and right now our sales opportunities are indeed business-to-consumer, or “B2C.” We recently updated our commission structure, which includes promotion opportunities within the Brand Ambassador position.

Pros

Really value growth and achievement. It’s a family atmosphere

Cons

Travel, lack of knowledge of what happens on corporate level. Commission doesn’t start until tenth sale. It’s cheaper to buy HF online than in person. So you don’t want the customer to see that they can get it cheaper on their own.

Pros

Good compensation for sales Awesome coworkers Great product

Cons

The leadership of this program does not seek or utilize feedback from Brand Ambassadors who are on the field every day. They also rarely take responsibility or change strategies when sales numbers go down across the board. Territory(booking and scheduling the events they send us to) is not treated as a high priority, even though it is probably the biggest determining factor for how many sales can be made. Brand Ambassadors are actively discouraged from giving negative feedback when events aren’t successful. Leadership expects BAs to give them the results they want without taking time to listen or put in the proper effort on their end. As it stands right now, most offices only have one events coordinator who is located in a completely different city/state. It is commons sense that this is not a great strategy, but leadership stubbornly persists with this structure and downplays the importance of territory. The only changes they do make are to tweak the punishments/rewards for Brand Ambassadors, expecting us to shoulder the full responsibility for sales output. A lesser problem, but still a big con, is that we have to attend 3 meetings every week that last 3 hours and provide no real value. Everybody agrees that they are a waste of time and they complicate our already hectic schedules.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review with us. We care a lot about the experience of our employees while on the sales team, and appreciate you sharing your feedback. Our Territory Team works to schedule Brand Ambassadors at high-impact events to maximize their sales potential. These events are at a variety of local partners and we revisit locations to make sure we optimize the different crowds at different times.
