Job Offer (Sorry about posting here...don't know where else on this subreddit)

Trabajo en Panamá / Work in Panama

I have an associate that has a business here and is looking for some sales reps. As I read the comments here on this sub, and being impressed, I thought that maybe some of you would be interested in at least getting an interview.

The website is www.ecofibra.net

I do NOT know this person all that well but he just texted me a few minutes ago. I hate referring anybody for anything but I remember reading that a few of you are out of a job. He pays pretty well, I think. You can PM me for his number. Once you get his number I am out of it. Thanks!

The following is, word for word, what he chatted me:

"I have over 400 leads right now. And they need to go door to door. The average commission is $1,500, should be able to close 6 per month."

I don't know if I believe him. I'm just relaying his message.

Ok, just for the inexperience. That type of product has being replacing other insulation products that gave all type of issues: ranging from rashes to acute respiratory problems in school and other places and was all over the news about 10 years ago.

Since this is a construction material you could have hundreds of leads but it may take from a couple of months to over a year to get a sale done. Why? Because this is one of the last items on a construction site so it won't get order upfront, will be order when the owner/contractor decides/knows he needs it.

If he is not willing to pay a salary plus commission he may not be in a strong financial position at present. If he does then great.

Usually when your company is small and dependent on specialty products is hard for a while until you have your business rotation in place: you quote, client agrees, you order, you or them install, you get paid, rinse and repeat.

I went through that myself, internet and bigger companies made a small successful business go bust in the early 00's.
