Pros: good training, computer/laptop support, lots of products
Cons: yellow pages is a dying product, cold calling small businesses, commissions are low for the amount of work and time you have to spend to close accounts sometimes, accounts receivables
You are assigned a small book of business to service when you start off. The rest of the time is cold calling and building a pipeline. The expense allowance is very low and does not cover gas, phone, colored copies and ink for your printer. Once you get an appointment
you can spend hours on prep at night-reviewing the companies visibility, developing
– more... potential spec ads and building 4-6 proposals. You have multiple products to push and management will make you focus on just one product if its coming to a deadline. Lots of competition in the market for all of these products. Not many people use phones books anymore! – less
