Pros

The job is quite simple and anyone could do it. In fact, they can ever keep this position fid because of the turnover rate, so there will always be a job available. The days are all different depending on what days you go to networking events to try and sell a subscription.

Cons

They expect you to sell 7 subs a week at a minimum. This is not impossible, but you will not make anything decent unless you sell 10 a week and probably need more and you will soon realize its not worth the effort. Do yourself a favor and work somewhere else with a better base and a better product because no one wants to be a subscriber to a newspaper anymore- they are dying out in case you hadn't noticed.

Advice to Senior Management

The micromanagement you will receive on a constant basis is borderline stalkerish. There also needs to be better communication about new products/services instead of telling one department at a time.
