How do marketing techniques help maximise sales?

HELP! Is this job a scam?? I don't think door-to-door saleswoman will look good on my resume?

  • I just had an interview with another sales and marketing company (Company A) similar to this company i will be interviewing for tomorrow (Company B). And Company A would have me walking up to random people on the street to sell them coupons. All the reviews I read about Company A are saying they are scam artists. The pay wouldn't be that good because I would need to spend it all on gas money and I don't think having it on my resume would get me a legitimate career in the future. Here's what I found about Company B.: EVENT MARKETING REPRESENTATIVES – IMMEDIATE HIRE Company B is an event marketing firm looking for people with potential, ambition, and drive, rather than experience, to facilitate our expansion in the Atlanta area. Company B is hiring for ENTRY LEVEL sales and marketing positions. We have an aggressive expansion plan laid out and are looking to find a person who would love to work in a fun, competitive, and forward thinking environment. What We Do: Company B is an event-marketing firm that specializes in the retail development of our clients.

Who We're Looking For: You must actually be ENTRY LEVEL. You must possess great people skills. You must demonstrate excellent work ethic. You must have a positive business attitude like the rest of our enthusiastic staff. You must be confident you'll be successful, just waiting for a career opportunity where you can prove yourself. Why We Are Hiring: Our clients representation demands currently exceed our present staff. Therefore, our goal is to find someone to help us run our Metro Atlanta locations and assist in our expansion efforts in the size and scope of our retail campaigns. The person we hire will receive comprehensive management training and will have an opportunity to take an active role in campaign development. Our Management Training Program focuses on the following areas: Sales and Marketing. Leadership Skills Effective Communication Techniques Marketing Campaign Roles Sales Strategies Team Management Job Requirements: Employees with a proven track record will have the opportunity to participate in our Leadership and Management Development Program. This is an entry level marketing position. All college graduates are encouraged to apply; however, the following degrees/experiences are the best matches: APPLY NOW! ONLY 5 POSTIONS AVAILABLE!

Job Criteria: Start Date: ASAP Position Type: Years of Experience Required: Education Required: Overnight Travel: Less Than 25% Vacation Time:

  • Answer:

    Please find a real job. Not a scam job. Why did you ask again? Chances are this is commission only and you won't make a penny and spend your time and money on gas. And worst of all. The tickets could easily be fake.

Company B look like a post from Craigslist, where did you find this? almost every job on Craigslist is a SCAM, even the website has a disclaimer stating that the jobs are scams...... I am sorry you are so desperate that you would even consider such jobs BUT these are both SCAMS run away as fast as you can.........

Run screaming in the other direction. No where do they say in any way what the job duties actually are, what the pay scale is nor when/how you will be paid. It is all eye wash intended to blind the unskilled worker into slave labor.
