Honnybrown;These take work, keep that in mind. You have to make calls and then go to the location and have an in-depth conversation with the manager or person in charge. Another thing is you have to remember is you have to make 3 THREE attempts while at location to leave and explain the materials. Keep this in mind before accepting this because if you don't then you won't get paid and have to return the materials. These are cumbersome but pay so-so for what it is involved. Another curve to throw you is the signature. You need this at the very end as to confirm set-up, demonstration and display

scanman, that's the point. I will do the job, see how it goes and then decide if I want to do more. It's an evaluation for me as well.
What kinds of variables and hurdles are you referring to?

BirdyC, the description made it sound super simple. I used to be a patient at one of the stores in that chain. I remember they had a lot of vendor items all over the place, and even more patients milling in and out.
I'm glad I canceled also. I'm not drawn for sales.

When I saw these shops posted I thought to myself - "What if the company does not currently sell that particular lens coating?" The pay offered was low to be a 'sales rep', and it should not be a shopper's responsibility to convince someone (who might be unwilling) to carry a product in their store.

Hi all. I just did one a couple of days ago and the manager took me in their back room and told me she would give me only 15 min. Of her time she asked "so what do you got" so I proceeded to pull out the material and hand her the info card started explaining stuff and showing her the lenses and material ect. I was in there 10 minutes she did not want me putting out any material, she does not keep out any material and told me she did not want it out because there was not room (I thought there was but she didn't) she brings out material from back office to show patients and then puts its back. She would not let me take her old stuff either. So wha. I really didn't understand is that opticians and managers know there stuff, we go in there to demo and tell them stuff they already know and I told her it was updated material/lenses Ect. They are more educated than we are about this stuff. But then when I asked her about the graphite green she didn't know about it and wanted me to educate her on it well I dont know anything about it except it s a new color of transition so that was all I could tell her. So I felt stupid. So that was my experience.
