Good morning fellow savages,
Here's an existential one for you:
Why do you work in sales?
Obviously, money will be added to the poll, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts as to why you chose this career (feel free to suggest some options savages).
For me personally, I stumbled into it at the request of a friend who was hiring SDRs. A few months into the role, though the stress levels were similar to my CX past, the pay opportunity was far greater.
Fast forward about 3 years, and damn do I find this work boring. I know some love the thrill of hunting, closing, but for me, it is so damn repetitive that it almost feels redundant. Almost. I am actually enjoying the AM side of things, but still can't shake the...boredom.
Then I look ay my paycheck and I shove those feelings down a bottle of Ardbeg. Of which I am still incredibly fortunate to be receiving, especially after being laid off two weeks before Christmas.
So yeah...why do you work in sales?
