Pros
Jenn is a great manager. You need to have confidence, and bring your A game each day. I was successful in every sales role I have had besides this one. The product is basically how well you can sell yourself to people on the phone the first 25 seconds. If you're good at finance, you should stick to finance. This is not about selling a product as much as it is about selling yourself. They will give you an opportunity to stand out, and if you can't sell quick (3 months) you won't make it. I had unusual circumstances which distracted me from having organized leads and the right focus at work, but if you have the mental aptitude and confidence to keep swinging and a good phone personality you can get deals done. It's not easy though, organization and repetition with a little attitude and you might can do it. I didn't pan out more because of my disorganization outside of work. Don't trust your delegate co-workers when it comes to leads until you're baller enough to not care if they take one.
Cons
Difficult to crash through the same folks in the industry who get called on each season, each day. Product is not tangible - other than the solutions provided to the attendees. It's truly a people thing - pitching on personality not offering up a Lambo against a Cruze. Not the most honest lines given to open up the phone call, but that's any sales gig that doesn't really have a tangible product and you have to create initial interest to these big wigs "cheese" so it makes sense.. All in all, i think it truly depends on your work-ethic and ability to be okay with selling a product you don't know too much about.
