I'm curious to know what it's like to work for a cigar manufacturer. I've been in Sales most of my life and have always dreamed about being a cigar rep, but I'm curious. What's it really like to be a Rep?
This. I talked with a rep when I was at the B&M. She said her average week was over seventy hours and she hadn't had a weekend off in months. A lot of shops do their best business Friday through Sunday so to meet the most consumers that is the time to be there. It isn't just glad handing shop owners. You have to get out there and talk to the consumers. You're trying to grow the complete customer base.I used to think I'd like to do it but I know a few people now and you sacrifice a lot. The job is definitely better for single people without a family. Long 80hr weeks with lots of driving and constant nagging from superiors. It's a very competitive and driven environment. If your mind is right you can thrive but if you value personal time and family time it's definitely not a great choice. That is my take at least.
It sounds like when I sold insurance. It took me about a month to say, no mas. After putting 6,000 miles on my car in a month and logging right at 370 hours I knew it wasn't for me.Sounds like when I was a realtor
Lol, yeah driving is all part of it. Living mobileIt sounds like when I sold insurance. It took me about a month to say, no mas. After putting 6,000 miles on my car in a month and logging right at 370 hours I knew it wasn't for me.
