Starting out in sales, you are in somewhat of a vacuum. Very often, there is no way to measure your success as you are likely the only one in your particular predicament.
So, you begin your journey in first gear.
First gear consists of learning the industry and, for many of us, sales itself. It’s frustrating and challenging and there is very little going on that gives you any reason to believe this was a good career choice over selling mobile phones for Verizon at the mall.
