Every sales job has an expiry date. Like bread but....

Good Advice

By Mohammad AqibPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

there are two different types:

1. You do well: you get promoted / leave for a better paid job


2. You don't do well: you get the sack. 


There is a third scenario.

If you don't leave the job when you should.

Bitterness will be your internal mould.

The worst thing for a salesperson.

Always looking to make the world a better place,

but too pessimistic to see new opportunities.

My advice to you is simple: don't get mouldy.

Leave.

Even if you haven't got another job yet.

The round of interviews you will do,

will give you a better idea of what to look for.

Selling yourself

will allow you to grow and

take that experience anywhere you go.

You can get mouldy even in operation/finance/etc..

but in sales the pressure is higher.

Trust me, I speak from personal experience.

If you agree with me, follow me.

If you don't, let's start a chat in the comment section below.

Good, bad and ugly lessons I learned in my 10+ years career.
