This semester I’ve learned a lot about career considerations, still not know for sure what I want to do, I would like to share something I’ve learned.<\/p>\n
After talking to a Sales manager who graduated from GCC one day, something was pointed out to me. \u00a0He had said that the people that moved up in the company the quickest had all started out in almost the same area of the company. \u00a0That area was sales, the upper management had started in sales and moved up. \u00a0I think there are a few reasons for that.<\/p>\n
The first reason is simple: a good salesperson can sell his or her self. \u00a0They can land that sales promotion not because they have the best number but because they know how and when to close a deal. \u00a0They can sell that they can lead sales teams and that they are capable of being in a position of authority. \u00a0Obviously if they’re good at sales they can work the pain angle and make the people promoting see that they need that salesperson in management.<\/p>\n
The second similarity or reason this makes a lot of sense is because the values of a good manager are also very similar to the values of a good salesperson. \u00a0Managers and salespeople both need to be independent, dependable, honest, ethical, buoyant, hard-working, quick on their feet, and able to close a deal. \u00a0The list of similar values and qualities goes on and on, this overlap almost makes salespeople natural managers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
