Job: Freelance Claim handling position - good or bad


Job: Freelance Claim handling position - good or bad?
I have been offered a job as a Freelance Claim Handler at a Debt Collecting Agency and was wondering whether this kind of job is effective and paid well. I have been trained today on how to process and generate claims and part of the job is to send Adverts about the service to potential businesses and my work starts when I receive a reply from them (that they would like to use the service) - hope this makes sense. Basically, my question is whether this kind of a job works out and whether businesses do get back or just completely ignore the emails we send out. Thank you for your help.

Junk emails, whether real or not, are considered spam. Email that is not requested, or a service signed up for, is spam. Its illegal not to mention disatisfying to not get anywhere, noone will open and respond to an email asking them to process a claim......its a sales job, dont bother, its not going to support you financially, and will not look good on your resume when you finally realise its a shame. The new company you try to get a job at, for example say Costco or Jc Penny or HOme depot will view it as, your not very smart to fall for a shame like this............ It will only be as successful as the company that offered you the job is, as long as you keep to it and apply yourself. If you answered a spam ad online, then the answer is, you will not be making money. If a person that you personally know, *not myspace buddy ok, works there and told you about the job, you might do well. Any job thats not f/t with benefits is a waste of time to me. Any job pt/ that means you sit and wait for them to give you info, and you spend time trying to make it happens, and work on percentage, its a waste of time If you are college educated on claims processing, there are too many real, good paying, with great benefits jobs out there. Hospitals Drs Private companies Stores the list goes on and on. At home, do this or that, most of those jobs, are given to real employees that already work for the company, and promoted to the position. Many hate working at home after awhile, they miss the comrodery of working along side other humans, the i get to wear jammies and work, isnt all that worth it, and, real work at home jobs, monitor every minute you are on the clock, and its a lil stressful to know that you take off, and your super is getting realtime messages on your lack of work on the computer
