A sales leader told me recently that they value consistent monthly output way more than a single lucky quarter. They believe that building repeatable daily habits is the only real way to hit long term targets. What is one part of your daily routine that has made the biggest difference in your performance?

How do you deal with a customer who is an absolute jerk, but you gotta talk to them and work through projects with them? Like they are always critical of you or your company, but it's above their pay grade on kicking you out of their business.

How much does the product you’re selling shape your identity as a rep, and does it ever make it harder to make a move?

Is it just me, or everyone bc I applied to over 40 places and none have emailed me back, not even a rejection, I’ve been trying to find a job for weeks and I get no replies, I’m really struggling and need some tips, please let me know if any!!!!

I spent a long time thinking that moving into management was the obvious next step in a sales career and then watched several of the best reps I knew become mediocre managers almost overnight, and it made me rethink the whole ladder. How do you think about career growth in sales and do you feel like the path to individual contributor ceiling is clearly defined at your company or is management treated as the only legitimate move up?
