What is your opinion on these jobs? I've thought about applying to one, but the only thing stopping me is the fact that they are commission based. I have to ask: How are people supposed to make money from this? Especially when you consider that 90% of the time, they get hung up on. I just don't think it is fair that these people have to work commission. What are your thoughts?

It was my understanding that it was a low base wage, plus commissions. I do not think I would want to do this, or to do bill collection either. I do not like being on the phone, and I am not good at high pressure to pay up, or to buy.

I know some telemarketers who earn from plain commissions only.. no base salaries.. but they are selling high ticket products/services that lets them earn big money per sale. One sale is enough to make them rich!
