Jon, I worked for a company for many years, looked upon as a reputable company, the biggest of it's kind in the area it worked. I even 'began' as a telesales person, but we weren't called that. It was a commission only sales job. We had to scour every known and unknown resource to find a name and contact details, then contact those names with a script. We said anything to make an appointment, to make everything sound 'PLAUSABLE & ABOVE BOARD", just so they'd say yes. No mention whatsoever at anytime of money. 100% gullible, because once they were in that meeting, they weren't allowed to leave until they'd signed = money.
You ever been in a Timeshare companies office? I hope you never find yourself in one!
You've made this plausable because you read and understood the way you want to read it. If you take offense at my candid words, it isn't meant for that, it's meant to give you a proverbial wake up call.
I had a very well spoken young lady call me the other day, stating she was a Junior Consultant and that she wanted to offer me a free consultation with a Senior Consultant. FOUR times I said no thx, giving her the reason and FOUR TIMES she didn't listen, just went right on asking me when would I like the meeting to take place.
Now zip over to Nashville, and an unknown songwriter trying to get 'their' foot in the door. To pay the rent, they take a commission only job. Their job is to scour the internet world for 'would be you's' that put their contact info in plain sight. Then send out a script to every single one, and see who takes the bait. It's a numbers game. He might hate doing this job, but hey he's got to live and if you're fool enough to fall for this from the get go, not his problem, thank you very much for my rent cheque.
Since we're all trying to save you time, energy, getting your hopes up etc, and at the end of the day money - I can't wait until I read you prove us all wrong.
Go for it.
Any newbies reading this, please do your homework through searching the net - don't just take 'our' word
Good luck Jon
