Experiencing the Life of a Sales Marketer for A Day....

Im actually on training for 4 months, and i still have 3months, 1 week, and 4 days more till its finally OVER!! Aih.... Hated working life, gonna appreciates life as a student more after this training... And i'll probably miss exams....OMG!!! lol..... My job is actually very simple, involved typing, filing, fax documents, scan pictures, etc... Those are admin jobs.... My other 2 friends, luowen and daphne however, (trainees also) are doing marketing job.. They need to go out and find sales or business for the company. Compared to mine, i think their job is much more tougher, after i had the opportunity to go out with them for a day to find sales, that's bacau i've finished my job, and the boss is outstation and i have nothing else to do, so i decided to follow them...hhaha...
We first went to Melaka Raya, to do wat?? To hav our BREAKFAST!!! lol....We had our breakfast at OLD TASTE. Frankly lo, the food is so so, not very nice... I had a "peanut butter toast" with a cup of "old taste white coffee".. the toast is too sweet, and the coffee is terrible, TERRIBLE I TELL YOU!!!! Its very bitter and not sweet at all, taste so weird, my house '3 in 1' coffee is nicer, and cheaper lor....
Then we went Plaza Mahkota. Walk into shops that could be our potential customer, but not muct success as many owner/person-in-charge is not available, dunno got bluff us anot... Then we reast awhile at Newton Village near Mahkota Parade... Believe it anot, this is the first time i went inside newton, despite being a melakan..hahaha.. Friends alwiays says tat im melakan ppl, but wat oso dunno...haha....


The environment is not bad.....



The lemon sour plum juice that i had....not nice lo, tastes bitter and sweet at the same time... -.-"


A lot of stalls to choose from.....


They even sell pineapple tarts and "tong sui" (dessert) there....


More stalls.....

After our drinks, we went to Jonker, to find more business... The weather is so DAMN HOT LOR!! All three of use keep on sweating...lol.... We walk here and walk there... After that, we decided to end the day, to go back to the office, but before that we decided to go eat the famouse cendol at Jonker. And that's where we got LOST!!!!! OMG!!! Wan find the stall oso so hard ah.... Hav to ask ppl, then finally get thr... *fainted* After our cendol session, we wanted to go buy cheese tart before we went back...Daphne said the cheese tart is very nice, so i decided to giv it a try, turns out im not a fan of cheese tart!!! lol... And the tart is quite expensive lor.. RM2.40 for 1 tart!!

After all of this, we went back to the office. . Thus end my day as a sales marketer for 1 day..hehe.. Overall, i think the maketer 's job is real tough. have to be under the hot sun for a long time, and have to have very good communication skills and know how to response and persuade customers....haha... Im more suitable for admin job... :)
