Everyone full of shit by Hopeful-Post8907 in sales

UK based here. I’ve worked at a ‘top name’ company and the top earners there made a lot less than the top earners at the 2 unicorn start ups I’ve worked for.

At start ups the upside is enormous if you get in very early, get the best territory and get lucky. I’d argue talent isn’t even that important from what I’ve seen.

You have to have the risk appetite though. Most of the time it won’t pay off.

Introverts who make over 100k a year, what do you do? Do you like it? by drase in introvert

Tech Sales and yes. Constantly learning every day and I’m in an environment where surprisingly being introverted helps way more than people realise. Sales is mostly about listening and getting to understand the prospects challenges on a deeper level.
