Pros

One of the easiest and laid back jobs I've had. Its a small boutique but knowledge of every product and how it is beneficial is required. There is little traffic if it is not holiday but there is a sales goal everyday. I genuinely loved all the products and loved being able to try everything.

Cons

Me, being more of an introverted type, found it a little difficult to sell the products. The only way a customer will know or want to buy a product is if the seller tells them about it and sells the product. L'Occitane's products are not cheap so it will take some convincing for most customers to buy products.
