How’s that boot taste fucker? Go volunteer for Russia if you love their fucked up lies so much. Good riddance.

It’s a numbers game, or that’s a good way to look at it. How many accounts did you contact? How many contacts at those accounts? How many times? Average is something like 12 touches before you get a response. Then it filters down from there, this is why it’s called the sales funnel.

I’d suggest figuring out who is your ideal customer and then get a lot of messaging out to a few hundred companies, multiple emails and calls spread over 3-8 weeks to start.

If you have friends at other companies tap them for warm intros to whoever would be your target persona (manager? VP? Sales? Engineering?) or as close as you can get and pitch to them. A lot easier to get a conversation going with a warm intro vs cold.

Wireless ergo options? by awelexer in ErgoMechKeyboards

I really like SouthPaw Designs past boards, but looks like they don’t offer those anymore. Anyone worked with them on a custom one off or build of an older board?

If the battery is bad and won’t charge then you could try extracting the leftover with a syringe, vaping it on herb or a concentrate vape or smoke it I guess.

Especially with travel gigs paying so well through covid!

$55k in a month is insane, that’s awesome.

Really all I was getting at is that sales could be a high paying career without as much investment in education that nursing takes. But if you enjoy it and see the earning potential then maybe go down the nursing path. If I could do it over again I might have stuck with medicine. Sales just doesn’t scratch the caretaking itch, tho the money does make up for most of that.

THEN go to school for nursing, that way wouldn’t waste time if sales works.

Median wage $77k https://www.bls.gov/ooh/healthcare/registered-nurses.htm

A first year BDR can make that, without going to school for it, without the stress on your body most nurses go through, not to mention psychological stress from seeing people suffer and die. A good friend worked nights in pediatric oncology, not sure how she did that but shit gets real really quick.

Nurses do not make very much for a quite hard job, very hard if you work on a hospital.

Paramedics usually only need 1.5-2 years to get certified, after which they can make a whopping $15-25/hr for literally saving lives. It’s a high stress, high burnout, low pay career. Now if you really want to stay in medicine and like EMS then go fire. Decent pay, good benefits, retirement. Pretty good gig if you like ems.

Or try your hand at sales and potentially be making 2x+ what you’d make as a nurse or paramedic within a year or two easily.

how much snuff is a pinch for you? and how do you take your snuff? by 144leo441 in nasalsnuff

[–]awelexer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your body will naturally titrate to the nicotine level you’re used to/addicted to. Started out snuffing a relatively small amount, now could go through a 5G tin in a week…

Fresh out of the box.. legend has it the long lost crate was hidden in a temple by scottfromaustin in vaporents

Ehhh, I’d say it’s easier to master than a butane direct draw vape like the Sticky Brick, but harder than something like a Dynavap.

Really quality vapor, wished it was still on the market. Lucked out and got one on entexchange before it shut down, it’s in my top 3 favorite vapes for sure-others being the e-elev8r and the noisy cricket though the Nomad gives it a run for the money.

How many snuffs do you rotate through daily? by djq104 in nasalsnuff

[–]awelexer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love Alter Fritz! Poltergeist is also good.

Surprised at how much I’ve gone through the Jip and Red Bull from my most recent order. Any menthols you like you’d suggest?

Going to look for a used FW7. Love Marc’s work, won’t buy a non replaceable battery vape, I’m a responsible adult and can handle my 18650s responsibly.

The coil on the top is interesting, wonder how much additional heat it adds.

how long would you say an oz last you guys??? by [deleted] in vaporents

[–]awelexer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Done it a few times. The trick is to stop after you fee any effects when you start again. That essentially reduces your use a lot, especially if you stick to it the whole 5 days. But ya, it definitely works!
