Why I'm Totally Into My Job ????♀? My job isn't just about the usual perks or praise (let's face it, educating is often a thankless job)– it's about something much cooler. When I first jumped into the sales game a few years back, I was pretty clueless. No outbound sales experience, and SAAS might as well have been a foreign language. But hey, I dove in headfirst, and guess what? Ended up kicking some serious butt. It was like discovering a whole new side of myself, one I never knew existed. And you know what's even crazier? Now, I'm not just a sales manager; I'm at the forefront of developing new sales reps as a Sales Educator. Yeah, me! Sales isn't just a gig; it's like a crash course in life skills you didn't even know you needed. And as someone who gets to teach and shape the next wave of sales superstars, let me tell you, it's a thrill like no other. ?? It's not just about pumping them full of sales knowledge; it's about arming them with tools that'll serve them in every aspect of their lives, whether it's sales or something completely different. Creating confidence that's unshakable. It's about sparking that fire within them and watching them crush their goals, no matter what they are. So, yeah, that's why I'm all about my job. I've seen firsthand how sales can change lives – mine included – and now I get to be a part of that journey for others. It's not about creating successful sales reps; it's about creating successful PEOPLE. ??

What are the top intangible skills in sales? If I am hiring for someone to join the team, I am looking for (in this order): ?? High EQ - I will take high EQ of high IQ every time ?? Curiosity - Always be... learning ?? Drive - Can't teach hard work... most of the time ?? Resilience - Sales is ALOT of no's and disappointment What other intangible characteristics are you adding here? Or where am I wrong?

I shared how door to door sales helped me kickstart my career. The part I didn’t share yet was how it also helped me land my first job in software sales and have a chance to work for a great leader. After a year of knocking on doors, I applied to Four Winds Interactive to help Scott Weber with lead generation. Scott took a chance on me because he also knocked on doors, and knew that if I was willing to walk outside for leads then I’d be willing to pick up the phone for them. In my first year I’m the job, he taught me: -how to align my interests with my company’s objectives -how patience with a strategy is usually the most effective method for getting to your end goal -what a good work/life balance looks like -a framework for outbound outreach that is still effective for me Our team scheduled a record number of outbound leads that year, and it gave me the confidence and experience I needed to move into a sales role. Who’s someone in your life that impacted your career early on? Give them a shout and see how they’re doing! I bet they’ll appreciate it.

From Childhood Hustles to Sales Success: My Journey as a Sales Representative Hi everyone! Today, I've been thinking about lots of things and I just want to voice out here. So I will be taking you on a wild ride through my sales journey—from humble beginnings to scaling heights as a Sales Representative.

Selling snacks to my peers in school and helping my mom sell vegetables in the local market were my early lessons in the art of persuasion and customer interaction. Little did I know, those experiences laid the foundation for my future sales career. Fast forward to my role as a field sales representative in a beverage company—the thrill of closing deals, building relationships, and hitting targets fueled my passion for sales. Every win was a celebration, and every challenge was a learning opportunity. Transitioning to a marketing marketing manager for a financial company (name withheld) further honed my skills, challenging me to navigate complex solutions, handle objections, and exceed client expectations. The journey wasn't without its excruciating moments—the pressure of meeting quotas, facing rejection, and persevering through tough negotiations—but each hurdle only strengthened my resolve and resilience. The thrilling part of sales? It's the rush of closing a deal, the joy of helping clients achieve their goals, and the satisfaction of surpassing expectations. But let's not forget the excruciating part—the resilience required to bounce back from setbacks, the grit to push through rejection, and the continuous drive to innovate and adapt in a dynamic market. So, if you're passionate about the art of sales, fueled by resilience, and driven by results, join me in embracing the exciting, challenging, and rewarding world of sales. It's not just a career; it's a journey of growth, learning, and endless opportunities. Do you have a similar experience?

?? When I started my career in sales all I cared about was comp. I wanted to make as much money as I could and was hungry to succeed. ?? Then I went through a long phase where status/ title was everything. I needed the title to validate that I was good at what I was doing. More recently I’ve realized that the most important things that drive me are: 1) ??? Are we building something great and am I leaving things in a much better way than I found them. 2) ????????Am I doing #1 with great people with amazing character and developing their careers at the same time. I know now that if I’m focusing on 1&2, everything else is just a byproduct of what you’re building and who you’re developing ??

“?? Why I Chose Sales Over Anything Else ?? When exploring career paths, I knew I wanted something dynamic, challenging, and full of growth opportunities. Sales checked all those boxes for me. ? Sales is more than just closing deals—it’s about understanding people, solving problems, and building relationships. It pushes me to grow, sharpen my communication, and thrive in a fast-paced environment. ???? What excites me most is that in sales, effort equals results. The harder I work, the more success I create. Every day is an opportunity to learn, improve, and make an impact. ?? Yes , Sales is a Risk but Risk is the only thing which can make you Rich For me, sales is more than a career—it’s a journey of constant evolution and endless possibilities. Let’s go! ?? #SalesLife #GrowthMindset #CareerJourney”

In sales job you meet new people every day. Some are nice and interesting, some are hard to get connected to, some are very detailed and scrupulous, some keep asking you the same question many times... You have a chance to learn from each of them – and you never get bored. This is what I like about my job. #BeNeering #salesteam #salesposition #cloudsales #lookingforasalesperson
