Growth in Financial industry

I provide professional financial advice on long-term insurance. I travel extensively. In this industry, In order to survive, you need a good relationship with your co-workers as there is a lot of studying, the introduction of new ways of doing business, like system upgrade. we end up assisting each other. Sometimes clubbing when visiting clients. It is important to be aware of what is happening in South Africa, as this industry is linked to Economic climate of the country. I enjoy meeting new people, engaging with a lot of different kinds of people and listening to different achievements and challenges people faced in their day-to-day. This job is like my own business, so it involves cost of sales. In other words, before you do a business, you must put in a petrol in a car and travel.

Pros: There are opportunities to grow
Cons: There are opportunities to fail
