Summer Sales

   When I first got home from my mission I noticed how stressful it was going to be to become financially stable as a young college student. I needed to find a job that would provide me enough money to not have to worry about work while going to school full time. I didn’t really consider summer sales to seriously until Cassandra’s cousin started talking to me about his experience in Milwaukee selling scripture DVD’s. I started to get really excited as he told me a few digits, and let me in on how much money he made that summer. Booko Bucks! That’s when I decided that this was the path I was going to take. I figured that because of my mission I had become a rather proficient salesman, at least in some regards.  I knew this would be different, but I also knew that I would exceed. Then started my search for which company I would sell for. I first met with the guys from The Living Scriptures, and was initially impressed by their sales pitch, and the atmosphere of the company, but couldn’t get around the fact that I felt like I was selling the gospel, and that just wasn’t fly with me. I then met with someone from Moxy, a popular pest control company, but just didn’t feel like it was the best sell for me. After that I met up with the husband of one of my life long classmates. He worked for Vivint, and it didn’t take long for me to notice that this was the best option on the market. The company was extremely well established, very proficient at training and preparation, and they flat out took better care of me from step one. So I decided to go with them. This is my plan for the summer: move to Longview Texas, sell lots of security alarm systems, get rich, come home and get married. How could it go any better?
