Sales Associate (Current Employee) - Columbia, MD - November 12, 2013
When first arriving at work I gather the appointment schedule for the day, gather the necessary equipment and then head out to the first appointment.
At each appointment the first thing I do is introduce myself and the company. I perform product demonstrations and sales. After the demonstrations I secure referrals in order to keep business going.
A&K marketing is a company that treats each employee as a private contractor. You make your own schedule and your income is based directly on your sales. With that said, I learned to be a self-starter. I learned that the more I put into my work, i.e. sales, building relationships, product knowledge and obtaining referrals, the greater the reward, financial and otherwise.
The managers were very persistent about making sure each employee received the knowledge on how the day-to-day business operates. The managers strived to make sure every employee had enough knowledge, experience and resources to prepare them for an opportunity to open their own office within a 3 to 6 month period.
My co-workers were very resourceful and knowledgeable about the company. Their was the usual competition but also an air of camaraderie that balanced the work environment.
Naturally, there is some hesitancy with making any large investments. The hardest part of the job was stressing the importance of the investment to the home owner. The most enjoyable part of my job was the meetings at the office. The meetings provided a chance to discuss our experiences, learn from each other and network.
Pros
Trips and rewards
Cons
No healthcare, vision or dental
