[QUOTE="The Milkman, post: 1220701, member: 22760"] Many Many years ago just about every center had a sales rep. Then little by little they covered more and more centers. Turn in a sales lead for points yrs ago and you would get a gift card bonus depending on your sales leads. Many a customer would ask me a week or so later about the lead I turned in and they say that no one had called them yet. The sales reps were spread to far and thin. Get sales leads , get sales leads..we get them ,then untimely follow ups. Then when you did finally get the leads there were times your gift card would not have correct amount of credit due you depending on volume generated. So after the company still pushed you for international sales leads ( when you got to the shipper you had to help them fill out the paperwork, remember the template?) you lost time while trying to make commit times on your P/U's. Your numbers were affected at times if you had to spend time showing shippers how to do it right day after day sometimes. Finally UPS had replaced their Sales reps with drivers ( their Plan) and made more profits. Many of us gave up on the sales leads because we were tired of making excuses why they got no call, and then hearing the shipper complain to us that the rep" Promised Them" a certain P/u time while you were on the other side of town covering your other ones.....Ups should try harder to keep the ones they have, not lose them. Then try to woo them back after giving promises that could not be kept:surprised: [/QUOTE]
