Careers

"At Upstat there will always be a team leader or manager there to help you succeed however your success depends solely on the amount of work you put in and can be very rewarding. You will learn how to better your social skills through your confidence and voice as you will be talking to clients all day. Team meetings at the start of each day will help with product knowledge and the ins and outs of selling to the average consumer. This job gets easier with time and practice but it is important to stay motivated and persistent because some days your work will not reflect your income and other days it will. Overall it is a great opportunity to earn money and gain a set of skills that will be an asset to you in your career."

"Best part about working in D2C sales & marketing is that you get to interact with hundreds of new people on a weekly basis. Sure, there are going to be some people who are mean to you, but hey, you're getting paid to engage with people, and the best part about it is that it's outdoors. I went from being a part time rep to being a director within the span of 18 months, and during that same period saw 3 new offices open in 3 new western Canadian cities. Through these positions, my personal growth and development has exponentially improved on many levels. There is definitely room for advancement. D2C has become an integral part of TELUS over the past 9 years and many of the regional or outbound sales managers within Telus start off through D2C channel."

"This company gives everyone of all sales abilities a platform to progress their careers to earn good money. The money doesn't come for nothing so you have to be willing to work hard but the rewards are definitely worth it. The team is like a family and I really enjoy working events with everyone."

"Worked at the Burnaby for quite a while. In the beginning, I was doubting myself. I was like, this is hard work, and I don't know if I can sell! Well, guess what, after a month of work, I was able to confidently make a good living for myself , improve my sales skills, leadership skills and think for other people. Nothing is more rewarding than doing a job that helps you reach your full potential. Come here and work past a month, I bet you will want to stay after. Don't get me wrong, it was hard work and tough, but what comes out of easy work? No pain no gain buddy. And with all things and especially sales, once this becomes second nature. You don't need to SELL. All you have to do is show up and be yourself."
