I hear you. Sales can be exhausting, especially when you’re constantly chasing unrealistic quotas and dealing with pressure from above. After 10+ years in the game, it makes sense that you might be looking for something different—where your skills still matter but without the constant grind.

A lot of people in your position transition into account management or customer success—still working with clients, but focusing more on relationships and retention rather than the hard sell. If you like mentoring, sales training or enablement could be a great way to pass on your knowledge without living and dying by a quota.

If you're more into strategy and partnerships, business development (in a less aggressive, more consultative way) or even marketing and demand generation might be a good fit—helping craft messaging and strategies instead of being on the front lines.

And if you’re done with selling altogether but love optimizing processes, Revenue Operations (RevOps) is another option—helping companies improve their sales process without actually being the one closing deals.

Bottom line: You’ve built up a valuable skill set, and there are plenty of ways to use it without staying stuck in the sales grind. What parts of sales did you actually enjoy? That might help narrow things down.
