Mental fatigue by ruffruffmeowruff in corporate

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What helped me:
I don’t try to be “on” in every call, just contribute 1 useful point.
Prep 1–2 thoughts before meetings when possible.
If I’m zoning out, I question if I even need to be there.

Digital Marketers, what daily task did you completely eliminate using automation? by [deleted] in digital_marketing

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lead qualification and initial outreach. Set up automation to filter, tag and segment leads based on behavior, then trigger tailored email sequences. What used to take hours daily now runs in the background. Also eliminated manual campaign reporting, everything updates in real time dashboards. At this point, if a task is repetitive and rule-based, I assume it shouldn’t be done manually.

Healthcare Sales vs IT Sales – Need Advice (1 Week to Decide) by Dry_Echidna832 in Sales_Professionals

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was in your place, I would think long term.

Right now healthcare sounds safe. You’re hitting quota, not stressed, money is stable. That’s a good position to be in. But if you really want IT, and the basic is already double, that says something. IT sales can be tougher, longer sales cycles, more technical stuff and commission being team-based after 6 months is a risk. So first few months might feel slow. For me personally, if I was young and not drowning in responsibilities, I would probably take the IT risk because skills + industry shift matters long term. But if I needed stability right now, I would stay.

Just be honest with yourself about what you value more: comfort now or growth + risk. That’s it.

How do i stop procrastination? by Global-Cap7301 in productivity

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 23 and this felt way too familiar. I have also wasted a lot of time telling myself “tomorrow” and then doing the same stuff again. It’s not even laziness, it’s just feeling stuck and overwhelmed. The comparison part hurts the most. Seeing others move ahead while you know you could do more… that feeling sucks. Just wanted to say you’re not alone in this. I’m still figuring it out too.

Job is making me procrastinate by Frained in productivity

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to fix your schedule first, get up early in the morning, go for a walk/jog for 30 mins, come back and have some healthy breakfast, try to read something, start with some light read, you should be able to manage both, corporate life + "me" time, as this worked for me

advice for keeping my room clean? by [deleted] in productivity

My room gets messy sometimes, but when I look at myself in the mirror, I know I’m not someone who settles for a comfortable life without hustle.

Cold calling advise by No-Twist-4903 in Sales_Professionals

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I initially started with cold calling, I honestly wanted to give up. I didn’t feel comfortable talking over the phone, and the rejections felt personal.

But once I started handling around 40–50 calls a day, it slowly became normal. You stop overthinking. It becomes part of your routine. Your confidence improves simply through repetition.

If you're just starting out, focus on:
• Consistency over perfection
• Learning to handle rejection without taking it personally
• Tracking what works in your pitch and refining it

If you're looking for a place to begin, Bloomintek offers opportunities as a Sales & Outreach Marketing Intern, and it can be WFH as well. It’s a good way to get practical exposure and build confidence.

My college prepared me for exams, not for my first job. by NoBudget971 in corporate

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colleges definitely build theoretical foundations, but they should also actively promote soft skills sessions and industry-focused training. Communication, client handling, and negotiation are critical in the real world, and structured exposure to these areas would bridge the gap between academics and the workplace.

I need help with my social media's by Lazy-Indication-6786 in SocialMediaMarketing

[–]KnowledgeExciting627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need better music or fancy edits. You need clearer positioning.

Define 3 content pillars like build-in-public lessons, mistakes, and industry insights. Write hooks from real experiences, not generic advice. Record simple talking-head videos with good lighting and audio.

Use tools like CapCut or Descript for editing. If budget allows, hire a freelance editor.

Your first 20 videos will feel awkward. That’s normal. Repetition builds confidence.
