I'm a sales leader and I'm always amazed at how folks who earn commissions burn'em as quickly as they earn'em
I offer financial coaching for my sales reps, and I want to get more of them involved if I can - so here's my question, out of curiosity:
Do people here think budgeting your money is important enough to have someone train you how to do it the right way? Or, do you keep it simple & just crush more sales to compensate anytime you need more money?
I seem to have 25% of my team that has a desire to budget their money effectively, and the other 75% just want to YOLO that $$$ as soon as it touches their account - they tend to grow sales #'s, but their wealth stays stagnant, so they're doomed to do this forever (it would seem)
No wrong answer, simply want to gauge how serious the community is about managing money in a way so we sales reps don't have to work until we die (unless we choose to, of course!)
If you think it's important, how would you sell budget training to your team? Or, maybe to your future self?
