Just my $.02...sales positions can be very hard, especially if you are in a position where you need to find your own clients. I sell real estate, just a part-time gig to bring in a little extra money towards debt (maybe $6-7k per year). The commissions are great - anywhere from $1000-$2500 per house sold, but it is a job with intense competition. No one feeds you leads - you have to work hard for every client you find. If you don't know a lot of people (family, friends, church, business contacts), then you will have to market strongly - which a lot of people are put off by (i.e. cold calling). And it's a position that requires a license, association membership, dues, lockbox key fees, etc. to the tune of about $1000 before you can even get started and another $1000 per year to stay in business (sometimes a lot more if your office charges you for office space and phone time). But it's flexible, you work for yourselves (even though you work under a broker, they are not your boss), and the income potential is great. Most people want to look at houses on nights and weekends anyway, so that would work out great for your shedule.
What type of sales are you considering? I don't know what Howeround is.
