Business Outlook
Pros
Independence, Recognizable Company Name for resume. real world street sales. Clientele is nice if they haven't been too abused in the past by food service reps
Cons
Chains are handled by National Sales and there are not nearly enough independent companies to be able to keep the sales staff occupied. Margins tight and compensation doesn't meet investment of time. If they propose commission and declining salary.... run for the hills. No Margins left in food and Sysco takes their cut first Turnover rate in sales over 50% with about 100 reps in less than a year. Pricing usually higher than competitors on same items
