This is a highly competitive industry that is beyond saturated with sales people and a reputation of slick and sleazy sales tricks. Business owners consider you the lowest of the low that call on them for business. Very little of what they will tell you turns out to be the case when you are in the field. They do things different from a compensation standpoint and product offerings but in the end you will figure out that there is nothing special. If you have a college degree, value it and find something else to pay your bills and build experience. Working at corporate seems to be satisfactory which is why the ratings are inflated much higher than they should be. If you are looking to work in the field you will be on an island and realize that you have been wasting your time and making no money.
