Toxic leadership and outdated product with poor sales - Inside Sales Representative National Event Publications Employee Review

Working at National Event Publications has been a great experience overall. The company offers a fast-paced sales environment that is ideal for individuals who are motivated, competitive, and looking to grow professionally. Management provides training and ongoing support, and there is a clear focus on developing strong communication and sales skills. One of the biggest benefits is the earning potential. The commission structure rewards hard work and persistence, which can be very motivating for people who enjoy performance-based roles. The team environment is also very energetic, and you work alongside individuals who are driven and goal-oriented. This role is best suited for people who thrive in a high-energy sales environment and are comfortable with phone-based outreach and building relationships with clients.

Fast-paced environment that may not be for everyone.

None really that are worth sharing here

Systems are archaic and makes it very difficult to generate good leads as you are expected to one call close cause that’s how “this sale goes” Management oversees everything and I believe costs the company a lot of deals because of their reluctancy to use newer software. We are in 2026 not 1996 so you must adapt or die. Why do the biggest brands in the world still use print but nobody can sell them at this company? Be prepared to make 200 or more calls a day looking for leads that take at least 8-12 calls to even get in contact with. Emails and setting appointments are very frowned upon. It’s a pushy sale and with the draw pay you dig yourself in a bigger hole if you aren’t selling. They give you this fancy title but you still have to clock in and out like you are working as a part time employee for lunch and also when you start and end work. Feels like a call center from Jurassic park 1.
