How do I switch to a career in sales & what's the best type of sales job to go for?
-
I have spent the last 10 years as Admin Asst/Exec Asst & Office Manager. My company just cut my hours back to part-time to allow me time to find a new job, but eventually they are going to have to let me go. I thought of this as a great opportunity to spread my wings and try what everyone has always told me I'd be great at - Sales! I truly have the confidence that I can excel at this, however should I just apply for any sales position that says they will train me, just so I can get my feet wet doing sales? Or, do I need to hold out until something comes open? I have complete confidence that given the right training about the product or service I'll be selling, I can achieve great things! I am not particular to selling any one thing over another right now...just confused since I do not know what job openings are scams or hindering to my success.

Answer:
Just another of your many options: You can probably try affiliate sales marketing. This takes a while to earn big though but some people really get good at it. There's a lot of information about this on the internet. You can also do blogging. Since you must be good at something, you can blog about what you know. You can also serve ads in your site for monetization. This type of work takes a while to bear fruits but once you have gathered momentum, there's really real money in this. But as anything else, it takes hard work and persistence to succeed. Good luck!
