My day at work
Start the day with an update to my report and emails. Liaise with my colleagues if we have any new offerings to present to our clients that I could have missed. Share objectives and what I am working on to ensure we do not call the same client and to assist each other to close a deal. Analyse my portfolio seeking horizontal selling opportunities. Always an opportunity to up skill my MS office packages, to make me more efficient. It is very important to have a positive rapport with your internal and external customers for a better working environment. I have been fortunate with appreciative clients. The worst aspect of my work is not getting the required support from senior management, not only does it not reflect well to the client it has a negative impact on what we trying to achieve as an organisation.
Pros: Started small and I played my role in the significant growth
Cons: No room for growth

Improves customer relations.
I have been working for Dollar Thrifty Car Rental since August 2016. A typical day at work consists of hiring out vehicles to clients, making sure we have the vehicles here on time from our depot, releasing of deposits and lots of admin. My co-workers and I work well together and understand each other. I have learnt that not all customers are easy to handle, however, it is best to have patience and assist in the best way possible. I really enjoy the atmosphere at work, I enjoy helping out customers and have them compliment us on our service. There are many challenges that come with this job and one of the main ones is dealing with irate clients. One of the other challenges I deal with is reaching a target. This has taught me how to work better under pressure.
Pros: Meeting new people on a daily basis
Cons: Dealing with irate clients

Excellent management skills, driving, customer service, excellent communication skills.
My daily duties consist of picking up and delivering cars from our depo and other branches. I assist with the inspection of vehicles before they leave the lot as well as when the rental ends and is brought back. My relationship with my co-workers is excellent. We all have an understanding and work well together. In the past 7 months that I have been working at Dollar thrifty Car Rental I have learnt how to work well in a team and my customer interaction skills have improved immensely. The most exciting part about my job is driving, I enjoy driving short and long distances and am able to do this with ease. the most challenging part of my job is dealing with irate customers, it takes a lot of patience and tolerance to do deal with irate customers, however, over the past few months this is something I have gotten used to.
Pros: Driving
Cons: Dealing with irate customers

Good startingng point
Dollar Thrifty is a good company to start working at. But long term is another ball game. I believe that there is a fair bit of favouritism that happens. A typical work day is quite busy when it's month end. Unfortunately for some, the taking of leave at month end is not allowed. Not even if it's for circumstancea beyond your control. There are a few managera who are wonderful to work for. But there are some who ill treat staff and senior management tends to look the other way even when a grevience has been laid.
Pros: Room for improvement
Cons: Long hours and no incentives

Excellent learning curve
It is a daily learning curve, making me an all rounder. You are exposed to getting the business and to see the final delivery in order to deliver excellence. I cover areas within Gauteng and other provinces are Free State, Northern Cape and North West. I prepare a monthly territory plan, to guide my month. Daily before I leave make note of any pending or preparations needed for the next day. Have an alternative call routine should the day change or a meeting cancelled within the area. Assist management to put processes in place to assist our delivery to clients. Consistantly seek cross selling opportunities and developments within my client base. Keep abreast with the market trends and competitor activities.
Pros: Started small and I played my role in the significant growth
Cons: no opportunity for promotion
