1. commission-based pay only. There can really be lean months if you don't close a sale. You're only as good as your last sale, a thing to consider if you go full time. 2. You become a public figure somewhat. You're image is always on-check by clients. 3. can offer to OFW clients ONLY while they're in the Philippines. Otherwise, it's a malpractice, and grounds for license cancellation. 4. Not for rejection-averse individuals.
