Yesterday, I left my day job early and I went to the Bluegreen office here in Charleston. I sat down with a recruiter and filled out an application for employment. I handed the recruiter a resume, but I don't think it mattered. She explained what the job is like and asked if I would be interested. I said yes and signed up for training a week from today.
It looks like I'll be selling 3-day, 2-night timeshare packages to people at sporting events here in town. I get people to sign up for a weekend getaway at one of Bluegreen's resorts for less than $50. Not bad. The only stipulation is that they have to take one of the 90-minute sales presentation tours once they are there. I think I can handle this. I have taken several of the tours and they're not so bad overall. I thought the Bluegreen presentation was pleasant. And, really, how hard can it be to sell 3 days in a resort-style hotel for 50 bucks?! You can't get a decent room for one night for less than $80 in most vacation spots. I would do it. In fact, I have done it! And I was quite satisfied.
As usual, I just hope it pays well. I love making a sale, having a happy customer, and knowing that I just gave myself a raise :)
