WOOT, Got made permanent at job today!

[Gamergod]

WOW, what an amazing day I have had. I got made permanent at my job after working there 6 months ( 3 as agency, then 3 with company ) I sell motorbike insurance and I actually love working there. Pay could be a bit better, but the people are brilliant. When they offered they said even though I was not the best there ( still good!! ) they loved how reliable I am, plus I work really hard and they said I improved alot since i started. I have never done sale before really, and it took some time to learn.

To top off my day, I did one of my best sales and it was not even my quote. Guy actually rang the wrong number by mistake and got through to us lol. Anyway I looked at his premium, and his best was like £144 inc legal. Well our best was £188 inc legal, so quite a way off. So I proceeded to sell him the benefits of the policy ( driving other bikes etc ) and he was biting. He also wanted to add another bike later, and the original quoted company does not do two bike policies. So next company quoting was £10 more, plus i checked and they do cover the other bike he may want to add later. In the end the guy went for it for £198+10% with direct debit. I was really happy and even the guy on the phone told me well done. I was really proud of myself.

My best premiums over the months though have been a £2000 premium+10% for direct debit with a £1000XS on a 125cc bike. It was only because the lad had loads of points, but nobody has sold one yet with an excess so high The other one was an actual **** up by me. The premium was £2000, and I made a mistake and put his daughter with a full instead of prov licence. It got found out a few weeks later, and made the premium £300 pound more, i managed to talk the guy round and he ended up paying and not cancelling.

Oh and I also have another interview lol working for Versign selling SSL with the directors. Bit scared, any tips? Money is another £10k OTE on what i already get.

Anyway, forgot to say congrats. Just thought that was a bit funny :)

No pay rise, I never thought to ask actually. The pay is very tight structure and I am on the higher bracket compared to others as it is. Nonetheless, got the other job coming up anyway. We certainly do trikes, whats the make and model and feel free to pm me mate.

I got the job , but sold the policy way later in the day ( like 7:30pm ) Anyway thanks.

Gratz!!

About the other job, it's up to you to figure how much that extra 10k will give you. If you can justify having to move jobs again, settle in etc then go for it.

No they did'nt!! The bosses were not there, if it was complience ( FSA crap, dont read the script and you get busted ) it would have happened during day.

Also we keep getting wrong numbers as there is something wrong with our listing. PLus we have loads of divisions of our co.

I misunderstood, dw lol

[rattler_nj]

[Gamergod]

I'm with him, I think they set you up!
