Pros

Commission can be lucrative if you put the time and work into being consistent and discipline in this sales role. Time management is key and learn how to pre-call all leads to filter leads that are quality.

Cons

Leads are essentially booked through store, online and phone. Most of the leads submitted from store lacks competency as to what the senior consultants can do for client. Instead of submitting leads that results in large sale, most leads are submitted for wifi, doorbell, and leads that are $1,000 or less. Basic knowledge is what most advisors suppose to sell in store but rather submit a lead where it does a disservice as to what the in-home program entails to. Lack of knowledge training from store management and below as to what the consultants program is about.

Pros

-It's a job that is available in most locations.

Cons

-The company, on a corporate level, doesn't seem to grasp the value of the talent they have. - Close ties with Citibank subvert the importance of product knowledge, customer service, and revenue for credit card sales. - Daily Performance check-ins are overbearing and myopic. - Tends to burnout motivated employees with false carrots and hollow promises. - Pay's terrible, and rides the line of predatory at times.
