Sales Rep for Cultural Care Au Pair

[Godsgirrl]

This is a very promising sales representative opportunity that you can do from home. I have worked for Cultural Care Au Pair for a year and it's been a great supplement to our income. CCAP facilitates the department of state au pair program. Au pair's are from overseas and come to live with host families and care for their kids for 1-2 years. They have two classifications of contracted representatives, the Local Childcare Coordinator or the Sales Representative. I'm going to post information on both. The LCC is an area representative that holds monthly meetings for the overseas au pairs. You also conduct interviews for new host families who are applying to the program. The most difficult part of this position is that you are the go-between for the host family and the au pair. If there are issues going on then you help to find solutions. The company will fly you to San Franciso for a weekend training. As an LCC you also can advertise (craigslist, message boards, newspapers, community events) for host families to join the program and host an au pair. You get a great sales bonus for any family that takes an au pair. There are also bi-yearly cruises that go to places such as the Bahamas and international trips to Europe (the trips are announced each year...could be south america, etc.) It's not hard to qualify. You also get a minimum paycheck depending on how many families you service. So say you service 10 families, you will get $250 per month. So not a lot but it's meant to pay for your time driving. You also get paid $25 per interview and every year that a host family renews for another year you get $175 or so. Once month I got $2,000 just for that. Now I found that being an LCC took up too much time (about 15-20 hours per week because I was spending a lot of time advertising online). I was given the opportunity to become a sales rep and so all I do is advertise online (craigslist only for me) and then take phone calls and respond to emails. For every family that welcomes an au pair I get $1,000. So This month I get $1,000. Last month I only got $400. Realistically at 10-15 hours per week typing and renewing ads on the internet, you should be able to bring in 1-2 sales. The last week I have been busy homeschooling so I haven't gotten many leads. So here is information about the sales rep position. If you are interested in either position, please let me know and I will enter your name, phone number and I will forward to the hiring department. Yes, I get a nice bonus for referring people for the positions. It really is a great company! And by the way, if you are interested in hosting an au pair yourself, please let me know! : )
