Being a ADT Sales Rep


First it is a requirement that you make 45 phone calls a day and it doesn't  matter how busy you are with appointments and the travel times between them.

Secondly, you will have to insure that the installers do not blow-out your jobs after you sell it.

Thirdly you will be the admin personnel, the Installation manager, a employee working in the billing department, you will be overseeing the shipping and receiving department, perhaps a technician, and did I mention to you that you are a phone caller in the telemarketer department. This is in itself shows that ADT, has lean it staff so much that it does not give you the support that you need, does not care for its employees.  If a company does not care about their own employees; wonders if it is the same towards their customers.

But when self-generating your own leads, besides fighting with our competitors, you will be competing within ADT itself, mainly the phone call centers, and our infamous authorize dealers will undercut you in every way they can. About the calls center, if a client calls in to check if you are an ADT employee and they place them on your calendar then it is not a self-generated appointment any longer. Also, if they call in the phone center then they may be sold over the phone and or be given to another rep. Simply put, you do the leg work and it is stolen from the security company that you work for. The ADT Company rather pays out more to its dealers than to you. Why, ADT will give you the sales rep less tools to compete against our sub-contractors. They favor to pay out around 32 times the  monthly rate to the dealers that is receive from a new contract  then to help their own reps.   Plus, if you do not generate at least four new self-generated within the month you will be remove from receiving company leads. Welcome, come on board, and ADT will give you the opportunity to flush others urinals, and receive the table scraps that are from the result of your labor.

  2. The word in the above comment was change, duck is not a duck, but - - - -. this is the comment.

    Well. now ADT is allowing the phone sale personnel to lie, if a customer calls in looking for their sales rep they will tell them that they don't send reps out to the homes anymore. ADT allows these ducking lies. Apparently, ADT gain 1 million accounts last year, wonder, did we lost more then 1.25 million last year, Sam, you.re right, ADT management haven't learn that phone sales doesn't build value to our customers. Our ducking new CEO and stupid board of directors are the ones that needs their head refresh, that is flush in the commode like you mentioned before in a one of your earlier post.
    Amazing, you new the changes before it came to being..
