Who are you, what industry are you in, and how did you do it???
I often hear SaaS Salespeople raking in $250k or $350k + salaries a year. How did you get there??? How long did it take? And are there certain industries that have better chances at these salaries? Is it knowing the right people and being born in the right family? (No judgement, I honestly want to know). Is it worth it (time wise, work/life balance)?
How many of you guys exist? There seem to be quite a few in general or is it because they're most vocal?
Either way, I'd love to get there one day too and I'd like to learn how y'all got there?
(Congrats to those who have!)

EDIT: Update - it seems the general trend is to be in sales for at least 5+ years. @JustGonnaSendIt has a great breakdown of tiers and salary.
Network like crazy with the right ppl. Thank you to @BigMeech for the conference and VP networking tip.
The trending industry seems to be Cybersecurity.
