Low Pay & High turnover

Sales representative

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Ability to set your own schedule

Cons

Management will micromanage you & call you 2-3x day for daily sales. Beware that the hiring office is usually a service office & not a sales office. They will tell you you will be working out of there but forget to tell you 1x a week attendance sales meeting in North Shore office is mandatory. They also expect you to work every Saturday and do call sessions 2x a week from 6-8pm. In addition, they will verbally hire you at 1 number but the paycheck will be short since nothing was ever put in writing. The 1st 90 days are a guaranteed salary then its 100% commission. You will be expected to sell 15-20k of non pest products for 1st 3 mos until official bug season starts in May or so. Average sale is approx $850 with 15-20% commiss..just do the math & you will figure it out you will need to work 7 days a week around the clock. Benefits start at 90 days. My guess is because of the high turnover

Business Outlook

Pros

Job is great during the spring and summer. If you have a good area with little competition you will do well.

Cons

Cold months get a lot harder. Leads stop coming in completely. If you are in an area with a lot of competition get ready to put in a lot of work just to have a few appointments.
