I was a former employee of one of the divisions of Quantum or Shining Tree International Promotions, Innovage, Smart Circle, Olympus Marketing... They are all the same thing with the same person at the top of it all.
Trust me and other that I have seen post things on this site... DO NOT! work for these people. They are completely dishonest in everything they say to you. You will recieve absolutely no benefits no matter what they tell you.. You will NOT! have your gas refunded to you even though they provide you with gas refund sheets during your first week of working. You WILL be driving yourself AND others around who have no cars and no money for gas to "EVENTS" which are up to and including 1.5 hours drive away.
You WILL be working 12 hour days Monday-Saturday. The best part about Saturday is that it is "team day" so you HAVE to work with someone so you are guaranteed to make a whopping 50 bucks to give up half your weekend... unless you get the BONUS!!! which you normally have to do something degrading to get like sing a song into the answering machine at work after each 50$ you sell so the managers can laugh at you while they sit there counting their money. You WILL never have the opportunity to make more than say $140 dollars per day if you are by yourself or about $65-70 per day if you are working with someone as then you have to split your profits. And this is IF!!! you are good... If you sell nothing you make nothing..
You will get anywhere from 30-35% for every hundred dollars worth of product you sell depending on how bad they want to rip you off. So for every 100$ in sales you will get about 30-35$ and split that in half if you are working with someone else. The absolute best people make 300$ in sales or up 400$ and NOONE can possibly do that every day because sometimes you get send to places where you will SEE 10 people! and if all of those whopping 10 people at a deserted shoppers drug mart sat NO well guess what! you have just paid money to work for 12 hours cause you have made 0$ that day!!! Then when you get back to the office. You need to make up some story about how you could have done better. And you can't blame your event or how many people did or did not come in the store for your lack of success it is ALL YOUR FAULT!!! It IS! '100%!!! commission... there is NO!!! salary of any kind.
Your boss will be making thousands and thousands of dollars off you while if you make 100$ a day you are absolutely amazing at what you do. They will make promises that they will send you to DALLAS and FLORIDA..but only the top 1 or 2 people will ever get to go... and from what i heard IT SUCKS!! You get to sell stuff off a table and rip other people off in another country. They will promise that you will become and manager withing 6-8 months... this is completely incorrect and a fabrication... at least 75% of people do not even make it through their first week before they quit. If your brainwashing and butt kissing skills are completely above average and you have no problem going into debt since your gas and food will cost you more than you will make.
And if you have absolutely no problem sacrificing your weekend, friends and life... make sure that you apply to this company because then you will have the distinct pleasure of playing off of peoples goodwill by saying that you represent charities and that they will get the profits from what you are doing... The charities actually only get 5% of the profits which is less than 5% of the money you actually give.
The owner of this vey shady business will rake in thousands while you struggle to put enough money in your gas tank to get to work and home every day off the money you make. So go nuts and work 72 hours a week for peanuts and lies... have fun... I could say SOOOO much more and if anyone else is interested in hearing more simply reply to this thread and i will be happy to go on another rant for you...
