Yale Property is now Sterling Prepetual. Their product or service is absolute nothing. You’ll pay $990 or discounted rate of $770 for a bunch of external affiliates, for which you have to pay every time you use their service. So what’s this $990 for?? Its just for a financial professional who got no financial background at all. Pay close attention to the term financial professional, he is not financial planner. So they are not governed by any disciplinary authority.
Sterling Prepetual’s manager’s primary goal is to make commissions from you with their property portfolio. All these affiliates are just a drama.. you can get those affiliates by yourself at the same or even discounted prices.
For those who got offered a job there; it’s absolute crap. You have to memorise a 10 paged script and present it to a potential client. Who was lied about the reason why you’re there in their house doing a presentation. You have to drive around Melbourne, using your fuel, from Monday to Saturday from 12:30 pm to 9:00 pm. Basically you’ll be living on the eastern suburb and you’ll be getting a client on the far western suburbs or country at 8:30 pm. So good luck you’ll be home around midnight. Since the lead given to you is as cold as ice. There is a high chance for the client to close doors on your face. You’ll also have the privilege to do door knocking and lying to people that you’re doing a community awareness survey. But in reality you’re getting their phone numbers for the call centre folks. The same ice cold lead that you gonna get.
You can ask you trainer anything about the company. But make sure you don’t ask smart questions about how old the company is or why did they change the name or where’s their overseas branch.. if you do so, they’ll smoke screen your question (it’s their term for avoiding it) or give you an answer that makes no sense at all.
So if you wanna work for 60+ hours of week including door knocking + 1000km plus per week on your car with no fuel rebate + buy some business clothings out of your pocket + some cool motivational lectures along with some lies + penuts as basic pay.. then welcome to sterling.
