<prompt> Human: Ive also posted this to rsales as Im not really sure which subreddit this really belongs in, thanks for the understanding.Its solely commission based, and I was told, quite literally, The only time you shouldnt get 2-3 sales per week is if you are sitting on benches.And also shit like, I once worked with a man whose first paycheck was five thousand dollars.Ive worked for Vector Marketing before selling Cutco knives but I didnt particularly care for it, as it required extensive networking and, I felt, abusing your relationships and family in order to succeed with it, as it used up your warm leads and resulted in you pressuring family and friends for referrals. This particular job however is supposed to be different in that I have a managersupervisor who specifically directs me to what neighborhoods to go to and provides transportation to target markets after I arrive at work so personal cost is minimal - Im wary though.I have sales experience and Id like to say Im good with people. Ive worked with call centers and I found I flourished best in customer support environments because I liked using my education, intelligence, and literacy to help individuals and in the process not only help them save money, but use that goodwill towards getting a sale. This meant that I averaged about 5-7 sales a day when I worked for ACT Unified Billing, resulting in a revenue in the 700-800 range when most employees averaged around 200-300. So basically, I was damn good at my job. Only reason I had quit was because of health issues. When I went into the interview I believe I made a really good showing of myself as I was professional and concise, but also friendly personal in that I made the interviewer laugh and what not - demonstrating my ability to be perceived as a positive personality archetype.All of this being said, I think I can make this job work for me rather well if I can somehow realistically save the customers money. Ive done some reading and lots of counties around the country always warn of scammers trying this exact thing - to lock in a flat rate, telling the customer it will save them money, but in all reality it costs them much much more except in a few months of the year. However I dont know if I can attempt to sell the product in good conscience if it will result in the customer being ripped off.Beyond this, what red flags should I look for in a job like this? Obviously its an independent contractor position, which I assume also enables me to file a different kind of tax return for this kind of employment, allowing me to deduct things like gas from my taxes.Potential red flags:Multiple craigslist posts. It seems that they created multiple ones with different and slightly vague descriptions and repost them often. Absolutely no baseline pay. I can spend 30 hours in the field and if I had no sales, I earn nothing. I hate the idea of this, as it basically requires me to spend money to even learn to sell their product which may be bullshit snake oil for all I know. Still, its the only real job prospect for me right now after a couple months of searching, so Id really appreciate some advice.  <response>: I dont even need to read the body of your post to know this isnt a good idea. Also, in my experience with people that have attempted to push a flat rate on me, these are very predatory roles and who wants to prey on their customers.
