I was hired by Ron G. at Forester Media, and from the start it was a grueling experience. Being in…read moresales for over 15 years, I had much to offer this company. I re-located with no expenses paid from Woodland Hills. Regardless of this, I continued to think positive and hoped for resolve. The training was next to nothing, so I had to be a self-starter. I was given an extremely hard task of starting from the bottom, as much of the territory was taken by other salespeople who did not have the skills I had. It was very political in this company, and my skills were not appreciated. I worked long and hard hours, from 7 a.m. in the morning, due to many sales being on the East Coast. There were no leads, although many of the 'Senior Salespeople' had them. I remember walking into an office that seemed like it was from Home and Gardens. Yet, my little open cubicle was given to me, so that everyone could hear my pitch. I was very good in this job, although the training I am rating a "0". Finally, after making thousands of phone calls, I still was asked to do a task that noone could do before. I was let go due to Ron leaving the company, and he said he could not train me any longer. He felt I didn't have the smarts to do this job. It's very funny, because at my current job I make much more, and am given the sales support I need. This place is a joke, please do not work at this company or you will be sadly disappointed!

Since most of the material in my books is based on interesting or funny stories in Santa Barbara's newspapers 100 years ago, I asked her for a design that looked like an old-fashioned newspaper with a sense of humor. She did a great job of creating an interesting format. I've gotten numerous compliments on the layout of my books.
