Excellent learning curve
It was good experience however it was killing my dreams and demotivating for my future as it was not a career I saw myself doing in the future or aloofness to the other activities and business related decisions I have previously made. However I take everything in good spirits and taught me a lot about gorilla marketing and directing marketing techniques.
Pros: Great promotion techniques
Cons: Long working hours and no job security

Helps you build confidence but wears you out
Typical work day starts at 5.30am and ends at 8pm Relationship with Co workers are good but the do tend to neg you out at most times You learn how to run a business and sell to people Challenging aspect would be time management considering 99% of the time you're at work and you don't have time worth your family anymore
Pros: Great opportunity for growth
Cons: Long and tiring hours

Development of Marketing Skills
A typical workday at the organization involves conversating and explaining the product to the client which is marketing of financial services. The bond that exists between my colleagues and i is team driven as well as sales driven. Our output is measured as a group and we assist one another to achieve and surpass our daily as well as our weekly targets. The job in itself helps to improve my marketing as well as interpersonal skills, thus making me more aware of the market and the needs of the clients/customers. As such, the most challenging parts of the job involves updating client information into the system, as the system at times doesnt function properly due to overcrowding and network challenges.
Pros: Great oppotunity for development of Marketing skilld
Cons: Long working hours and 100% commision based

Excellent learning curve
The company offers leadership qualities and management experience but in terms of income there is not enough for everyone it is more like a pyramid scheme, the company does not offer transport for employees and transport is very essential in that business which is the reason why I left because I was spending more than I was making.The learning part is exciting but having to travel to different PNP stpre s to pitch to customers to sign up for a store account is very costy.
Pros: Ownership and management experience
Cons: Long working hours without guaranteed pay

Pros: promotion
