[QUOTE="Dustyroads, post: 551101, member: 22610"] If any cover drivers want to try to find a sales lead on my area, they can jump right on it. Best of luck to them. The whole sales lead program is just a bunch of smoke and mirrors, including the little quotas that managers have for every driver to give a lead every year or every quarter or whatever they happen to be pushing at the time. Then, if drivers don't give a lead, the management team creates a fake lead, oftentimes obtained by getting an return address off of a Fedex package and submitting it in the non-participating driver's name, just to make the center's participation numbers look good. Never do you hear a management team tell you how many pick up accounts your center had last year verses this year, or how many pieces were picked up on a certain day in your building last year verses this. Instead, the measurement is made by driver participation, which is a meaningless figure, made even more meaningless by the management team massaging the participation numbers. Bottom line, if you want to submit a lead, do it. If it means too much work for the regular driver, well, I'm sure they know how to grieve excessive work. [/QUOTE]
