Self-employment has ups, but salary is misleading - Anonymous employee Rise Network Group Employee Review

A clear, performance‑based progression track — promotions and leadership opportunities aren’t time‑based but merit‑based. It is described as an energetic, supportive team environment where colleagues encourage each other and celebrate wins.

Base salary isn’t guaranteed and that a promised wage is actually tied to hitting sales targets — sometimes without clear documentation. Because you’re out meeting people all day, it can be taxing physically and emotionally — not great if you prefer structured office hours. not being told ahead of time that the role involved knocking on doors and cold‑engaging the public.

The progression structure is really clear — promotions are entirely performance-based, not time-based. The training and mentorship are genuinely hands-on; you learn directly from people who have already built successful teams. There’s a strong team culture — everyone celebrates each other’s wins and pushes one another to grow. You get exposure to different parts of the business (sales, leadership, recruitment, and operations), which makes the role feel much broader than just sales. The earning potential is realistic if you put the work in — it’s very merit-driven. Lots of flexibility and independence once you’ve proved yourself.

The learning curve is steep in the first few months — it’s fast-paced, and you need to be self-motivated. It’s not a 9–5 role; you get out what you put in, so it suits people who are ambitious and driven. Because it’s performance-based, it might not suit someone looking for instant results.
