Unprofessional, Waste Your Time

None. There's a five-word minimum.

BEWARE: The vast majority of editor training (a good 12 hours) is unpaid and requires watching hours of online videos that are slides with narration.
I completed the training, including spending about 9 hours watching the cold email course. In addition to that, they announced a mandatory *unpaid* online training session for all editors. All told, I put in about 15 hours and only made $100 for the final exercise. I'll let you do the math.
After all that, Heather told me they had put a "pause" on assigning work to new editors because they're changing their "training and internal processes" and that she'd hopefully have an update this month. Hopefully?
In short, Heather took up a huge chunk of my time, most of it unpaid, and then brushed me off.
Oh, btw my final exercise ended up in someone's spam (or so Heather said), so I didn't get the $100 for weeks.

I didn't spend 9 hours watching your email course for my edification. Either live up to your basic responsibilities to your employees or at least pay them for the time that you're wasting.

A less-than-satisfactory end to a short time with Salesfolk
|
|
I honestly didn't work here long enough or on enough to see any good, personally. It seemed as though the core staff got along well, and it seemed as though issues with servers and the website/Intranet/Scribe were fixed quickly
|
Communication is severely lacking; was never welcomed by anyone besides the woman who did most of my onboarding; management does not communicate well or professionally; no guidance was offered, and I was simply referred to stale, repetitive "lessons" on writing

Please please please communicate with your employees, professionally and with respect. It took weeks and constant badgering to hear any progress on my assignment, and even then, my only feedback was all negative, and I felt as though my supervisors gave up on me. Guidance from an editor would have been helpful, but instead, I was shoved away and told that I simply missed the mark and that you all didn't know what to do with me. I really got the impression that this company took talent that it saw in people and helped shape it, but I was sorely mistaken.

Was able to foster client relationships and create great value for leading technology companies in many verticals. Learned new skills and competencies on a daily basis. Networked with top executives at these companies.

None -- had a great experience here.

Great gig -- if you're self-directed and proactive about communication
|
|
I love working with the Salesfolk team. The community is full of positive people who take their work seriously, but still enjoy goofing around with each other.
The fact that the work is completely remote is huge -- I can complete my projects wherever I please (today I'm working from my home office. Next week, I'll be working from France)!
|
This isn't a con for me personally, but it could be a con for people who are accustomed to corporate life: you need to be 1) extremely self-directed, and 2) a very proactive communicator to succeed with Salesfolk. Since the team is small, everyone is busy.
As a new team member, you'll get all the resources and attention you need to ensure you're successfully onboarded. But after that, it's your responsibility to check in with the editor on the status of your project, to let the team know when you will/won't be available for revisions, and to speak up if you have questions or need help. If you can manage these three things, you'll love Salesfolk. If you prefer lots of instructions and hand-holding, this might not be the job for you.

Great minds think alike
|
|
Being surrounded by a team of fun and interesting intellectuals. Fun start-up feel while having the brand recognition within the Enterprise SaaS industry to grow and feel established. Flexibility to work remote, competitive pay also.
|
No complaints so far, working for Heather has been wonderful.

Poor communication with contractors

Good processes and technology. for remote employees.

Poor communication of expectations and deadlines. One person says one thing while another persons says something different.

Clearly communicate all deadlines. If the first 4 e-mails of a campaign are going to need to be reviewed and revised prior to continuing the rest of the campaign, say so. I was terminated because I was traveling and unavailable for revisions when I wasn't told that I needed to make revisions or be available to do so.This happened after spending an entire day to complete my outline and get it in on time.
