After the 60day trial period, commission will increase to 15% from any amount you help me collect from my customers.before things were not
as difficult as this for us exporters in the east because checks from these countries never took any time before they cleared in our territory but now it takes weeks and this slows down production for us.some of these customers even send checks that will not clear eventually at the end of the day and this creates more financial problems for us eastern businessmen.The best part of this job offer is that you do not have to leave your present place of employment because it is on a part-time basis.You can ask any question concerning the areas where you are not clear and I assure you that I will answer them to the best of my knowledge. thank you.Please if you are interested forward to us.
