Telemarketer Makes 20k
 

Flip to page 8 of Sunday Times and read about an ex-telemarketer making $20,000 every month working for Citibank and DBS:

I’m not sure if telemarketers earn this much today, but if they still do, it sure is a very lucrative job given that you only need to make nuisance calls and pester people :).

Next time you meet a telemarketer, think about the possibility that he could have a net worth higher than yours (if he’s not a big spendthrift).

I’m a tele marketeer but I don’t even make 5k. Where do I get a job that pays 20k? 10k also ok.

1 in a billion ?

i have a friend who is a telemarketer and he’s earning like 6K average and the best part is that he doesnt even an O levels. Oh well.. DONT COMPARE

We should COMPARE!

It’s basic economics, if there is an opportunity, we should all go there….

Why stick with !5k or less when you can make $20k!!

It’s always “I know someone” or “I read in papers”… Who knows if it’s only a ploy to get people into sales? I for one know with first hand experience that this is a tactic to lure people into MLM (only the top earns a lot; the rest loses money).

Has anyone scolded a telemarketer before? Slammed the phone? Threatened to report? Vowed to get him/her fired?

Maybe not, then again, it’s hard to compare.

my boss scolded me and slammed phone on me, but he pays me only 3k :) . I rather be a rich telemarketer and get worse treatment.

tele: hello, would you like a new credit card?
me: is it true you guys make 20k a month?
tele: no lah…
me: but i read online that you guys do!
tele: you sure?
me: yes, visit salary.sg for more info and ask your boss to pay you more. now stop calling me again.

It’s hard to deny it’s a comparatively easy job considering what you need to do… no meetings, no complicated reports, no office politics.
