Hey everyone, I have finally worked up the nerves to make a post here! While I have tons and tons of questions that I would love to unload in this one post, I figured I should keep it small for now since I'm still reading through all of the old threads that probably already have my answers. I'm an advertising student right now, with a focus in Account Management which is slightly different in an advertising firm but I have become really interested in the sales side of it. Any information on resources for learning sales and the field is greatly appreciated, I have been reading the books that everyone here recommends like "Never Split The Difference". But back to my main question, I see many saying that the best way to learn is simply experience. Does anyone have any history of working a sales job while still going to college full-time? I have read that door to door is grueling but worth it but I don't know how it lines up with my classes schedules, which is definitely something I need to look into more. Are there other forms of sales or positions that I might be able to work out part-time or even remotely? I appreciate anyone saying to live out my college years while I have them, but unfortunately I was 18 and not thinking about the debt I was putting myself into (an unordinary amount for the average person going to school for what I am). So I feel I should have as much underneath me as possible to be prepared for graduation and hitting the real world right away to save myself financially!
