Starting a new role as an AE coming from 8 months as an SDR and getting promoted.
I have very little experience with disco calls and speak to very technical individuals (data architects, engineers, devs, etc.) I always feel the imposter syndrome due to relying on out working individuals and being quite good at building relationships, but my goal is to become a more well rounded seller. I seem to struggle to sell through solutions rather than features and being able to really pry out and identify pain points. I have issues with admin stuff like day to day staying on tasks, and a lot of the stuff time I just feel like I have no clue what I really should be doing.
AAAAND on top of all that I seem to struggle with listening and retaining information on calls. how TF did I get promoted lol.
All jokes aside I have the drive and love to succeed in sales I know I do but I have a lot of improving to do if I want to be a successful closer rather than just an SDR.
