Public vs Private Sales 💰

Question

Been lumped into Public Sector because I was the first person to make a government sale at our company! Pre-series A start up. One man AE/AM team.

I think the skillset is the same? Although, sales cycle seems pretty long 12+ months. The one thing that is challenging is the tendering and procurement side of things.

Will it be difficult to move back to Private later in my career?

Accepted Answer

No I don't think so. Have you thought of a hybrid role?

Answer

As far as you can prove your worth..

Answer

I think if you can be successful selling in public sector at a startup then private should be a breeze.

Answer

Sales is sales! It’s not easy selling to the public sector so I think you would be good if you ever wanted to move back to the private sector. 👍🏼
