1, 2 and 4 but base salary and product is usually the first thing I look at.

Account Executive

Absolutely! Some of these products are wild

Senior Sales Executive

1&2 here mainly for me!

Account Executive

For sure! Base is what gets the mortgage not OTE!

Senior Sales Executive

Absolutely!

Senior Sales Manager

Product - Market fit. Hardest to find out, but most important if you want to be successful.

Account Executive

Agree! Just because I can sell anything doesn't mean I want to!!

Senior Sales Manager

Correct. Long term what you sell and how will determine your overall standing in your market.

So worthy, in my opinion, to have a long term approach.

1. the the mission the company is on something that gets me excited?
2. base pay
3. the product has a differentiated feature/approach that ppl actually CARE about

Account Executive

Gotta get the people going. I feel that. There have only been a few products that I would get excited to sell!

Work life balance, Work from home, product and of course the base salary

Account Executive

100% agree. The main reason I stuck with prospecting even though I didn't like it that much was the freedom it afforded me.

Base and remote only.
