Cromwell delivered papers and worked other jobs. He was surveyor for "Tuttle & Pike, civil engineers" for two years. One of those years, he did surveying in Grandin, Missouri. Cromwell then became a salesman for the W. L. Grush Commission Company, owned by Walter L. Grush, in 1898 and later changed the name to the Cromwell Butter & Egg Company. He became a stockholder and vice president of the company after Grush's death in 1916. The business would eventually fail in 1938 after the Crash of 1929.[2][3] Cromwell also worked as director of the Empire Ice and Storage Company and president and general manager of the Federal Building and Loan Company.[2]

He became a liquor salesman during World War II.[2] In the 1950s, Cromwell was a deputy sheriff, working as bailiff in division 4 of the Jackson County Circuit Court under Judges Thomas R. Hunt and Duvaul P. Strother.[2]
