Visiting multiple retail stores daily

⚠️ Reality Check
1. Field-Heavy Role
Store visits daily
Standing, moving, coordinating

👉 Physically active job

2. Target Pressure
Monthly/quarterly sales targets
Retail push required
3. Repetitive Work
Same stores
Same products
Same conversations

👉 Can feel routine quickly

4. Salary (Not Mentioned Clearly)

Typically in this segment:

₹2.5–4.5 LPA + incentives

👉 Not high-growth financially
