Vantaggi

Svantaggi
No team work or unity between inside and outside sales team. Lack of trust between inside and outside teams. Top accounts should be given to the Outside Reps since we have relationships and frequent the merchants business. Tendency to over complicate the sales process. The next part is not really a con but more of a warning to job seekers. This job is not for you if you're not willing to work hard and be aggressive to make sales. You must be mature to handle the workload and expectations to be in this outside sales role.
