End of The Life with Phones :(

29th July 2011
Officially, I ended my career as a Marketing Executive (ME) in Teledirect Telecommerce Pte. Ltd.

3 months ago, simply surfing in Jobstreet.com, and simply clicking few jobs without studying much details (tikam only..haha)
And dramatically, I got a chance for interview, and then get hired.
Never thought i will work for such job in my life..sometime destiny and luck are really fishy XD

Start from that moment, my hectic lifestyle started.
I have to wake up at 6.30am everyday
Take ride on the BEST transportation in Malaysia >>> KTM
and went back home late at night..
And really live like a typical white collar, wearing formal everyday

My task ? sell credit cards from Public Bank to customers through phones !
My first impression was : OMG..isit posible for customer to commit such thing through a phone call only?

After a few weeks..I found the answer is, YES.
Practice makes perfect.
Faced lots of problems at first, some customers will hang up the call directly when they heard CREDIT CARD , some even will scold us and say that we are….CHEATER !!!! sad..
As time passed, as experience gained, I am getting more professional , no matter in what language, and to tackle the customers' objections :)

" Hello, may I speak to Mr/Miss XXX ? My name is Allen , I'm appointed by Public Bank to call Sir/Madam today regarding the priority invitation of Public Bank Credit Card."
This was my typical opening script. Haha.

Through this job..I found the difficulties of being a telemarketer..
I found that most of the people always complain telemarketer calls, some even insult the telemarketer and scold them..(and I have such thinking too before I work for this job)
I understand, maybe sometime we are annoying, but we just did what we suppose to do, that's our responsibility
If you are not interested, pls reject politely, pls respect us.

The Pay ? I've to say..it's very very good for school leavers like us to earn money during holidays..
Not only for the basic salary..also for the comission
If I've the chance..I will go back this company again..haha

Again, time flies.
Cruel, always have to leave somewhere or something when I'm starting to love it..
I've learnt alot in these 3 months.
Sales tactics, communication skills, teamwork and cooperation with colleague, knowledge regarding credit card and insurance and many many more...
I love my campaign , PB Cards
Enjoy working with all my lovely colleagues..they are very kind and funny..
And my team leader, Kak Azura, I will vote her as the best leader in the company~

Bye Teledirect !
Bye PB Cards !
Bye KTM !
Bye my cute colleagues and teammates !
I will miss you all ~

P.S. :
Well, the end of the journey in earning money
What's next ?
Of course, time to spend money ! ^^
Bought my first DSLR, going to hunt for my first smartphone also..haha !

P.S. 2 :
I've left my blog quite a time..finally i'm back..though it's bit late..hehe :)
