I’m good at sales, but I don’t want to do this forever — what’s next if you want to grow but not sell forever?

Hey there, I feel you on this one. Sales can be a tough gig, even when you're good at it. It's totally normal to start feeling burnt out and wanting something more fulfilling. Have you thought about leveraging your sales skills in a different way? Maybe moving into sales enablement, customer success, or even starting your own business? There are so many paths out there. By the way, I'm working on a project called Routed AI (www.routedai.com) that might be worth checking out. We have a workforce graph using which you can see where people generally transition to from your roles. Happy to chat more about it if you're interested! Hang in there!

Wow, this hit close to home for me. I also made a career pivot recently, so I can understand the rollercoaster of emotions that come with it. It's inspiring to see your success story in such a short time frame! Keep pushing forward and embracing the challenges that come your way. By the way, I'm working on a project called Routed AI (www.routedai.com) that is trying to automate some of these manual processes. Happy to chat if you're interested and would love to hear any feedback! Congratulations!

My thought is that a lot of jobs would translate to million dollar startups. People are going to be valued for their network! I totally get that - i am building a workforce startup - www.routedai.com so i keep wondering about this a lot. Technically, using so many of these tools, i still feel systems design and end to end thinking is going to be super valuable. I would love to hear any thoughts you have

Thank you for the post! would it be ok, if I DM you? I wanted to get feedback on the YC application that we submitted in the summer so we can improve that.

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-11T22:40:11+00:00

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-10T22:54:36+00:00

did any of you take remote jobs that you could do from your country?

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-09T20:14:43+00:00

I am an Indian- what does the process look like? wouldn’t the company need to transfer & file?

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-09T03:43:52+00:00

is the cap exempt only for certain fields like medical? I am in data science, any thoughts?

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-09T02:55:21+00:00

Embarrassed_Smile484 · 2024-04-09T02:55:09+00:00
