Excellent leaning curves

Is not an easy job. I have to look for people who are interested to our funeral plan. The challenge is that i have to think were to go to find clients. But what is nice about my job I have to go in defferent places to go and sell my product around Cape Town. The worst part is that i don't have my transport. I have to use public transport. Another thing is that I get paid through commission. So if I get few clients in that month and I have some lupses, some times I didn't get paid.

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Long working hours
