Pros

none at all - it's not a job - you are a self employed tout for someone elses business and you cant even bill for your time

Cons

everything - being lied to about how you are going to be working a patch that hasn't been done for years only to find you cant visit x y or z company because they signed up two months ago. Being given a patch with only 500 elligible businesses who answer with things like 'not you lot again' discovering that the product is actually worthless and there are many better alternatives that companies already use discovering the company is so far out of date its laughable discovering this commision only job keeps the owner in new jags while everyone else effectively works for free. Even if you miraculously make some money you will run out of prospects within four weeks . .

e appreciate comments but find it hard to believe that you worked full-time at The Credit Protection Association (CPA) as a salesperson, because experience proves if you had worked full-time and followed the recommended procedures, you could have been highly successful. Indeed, you would have made a very good income for yourself as so many other hundreds of people have done over the years we have assisted them to have successful careers. Rather than raise issues with us directly, unfortunately you have chosen to write anonymously so we never had the opportunity to address issues that you felt you had. Frankly, what you say is inaccurate and untruthful. All our salespeople are given exclusive territories which each have a minimum of 12,000 live eligible businesses to prospect who are not present members of CPA. We break up the United Kingdom into less than 90 sales territories so we cannot fathom how you can claim to have only 500 eligible businesses available. We do encourage our sales persons to break their territories into three zones and only work one zone at a time in order to prevent unnecessary traveling. But even then, each zone would contain thousands of businesses. We sell to all types of businesses that sell on credit and it is our interests to provide our salespersons with viable territories. Again, you make a blatant untruth in saying that the product is “worthless”, because, as so many thousands of happy commercial users have found, the success rate on overdue account recovery exceeds 80% of all accounts submitted; also the credit reports, instantly obtainable by clients, are amongst the best in the marketplace. Have the courage to reveal your name and I as Managing Director of CPA will be pleased to meet with you and discuss your time with CPA in a proper, business-like manner

Hi, we are still very much open although we did suspend our face to face sales activity last year until we came up with a revised way of working. I think this review is for the Credit Protection Association based in the USA which is not affiliated with us.
