Field Tech Support

I was extended an offer by a Mobile computer company coming to town new with a fair pay. However there is a clause attached, which is that I will 10% comission on setup fee sold through me, does this not sound like sales?
I am told that I when I don't have a call I will be required to go businesses and explain the services of the company.
Any thoughts or advice ?

I've also seen many smaller companies combine sales and technical positions. Where as the field tech promotes his company's services to new businesses when he/she has no calls. Personally, I've never really felt comfortable with this. I prefer my role to be more defined in the client/customer's eyes. However, I wouldn't see a problem with a field tech making visits to current clients/customers as a courtesy call.
My advice? Give it a try. You may enjoy doing it, and it will develop your people and presentation skills. Which are two important skills if you ever decide to move up into management or even start your own business.
