Anyone else stuck in sales?
I worked in retail from High School to my early 30s. Within that time I got married and had 3 kids along with getting a BA in History. I moved into B2B sales and crushed it! I hit 19 straight quarters and went from $40k/yr in retail to eventually $160k/yr in B2B. I did so well in sales selling 1 product line, my company decided to raise my quota and have me sell EVERYTHING in our portfolio with a minimal raise in OTE. We have sales consulting engineers which help but good lord is it much more work and I'm down to about $120k/yr maybe. Thing is, I don't like my job anymore but bought too big of house and am now feeling stuck. Should I stay put and hope it gets better or look elsewhere? The company is super stable as a fortune 500 and I've only changed employers once in 22 years. I appreciate any thoughts, insight in the job market or advice about how to maybe make as much while getting out of sales entirely. Much love and best of luck to everyone this Q4.
