Whats it like working as a double glazing saleman?

Ive done field sales role before but it was for business to business. For me its a quite different job role as im more use to retail enviroments.

Ive seen a job for St Helens Glass where theyre offering 45K+ annaul for trainee "Customer Quotations Consultant" positions.

Salary seems a bit "too good to be true" for entry levels. As Ive had no experience of selling windows or "Energy Efficient Home Enhancement".

Ive asked the company but they wont disclose any info via communications. Well actually the contact number they gave me doesnt answer calls.

Well anyone know if its a good job, whats are the ups and downs?

    I have never tried sales even when I was a student. Will this job be cold calling eg knocking doors trying to pursued at home mums and people woken up from trying to sleep off a night shift?. If so don't expect much in the way off hospitality.
