So many…. Follow people on LinkedIn for ideas and subscribe to SDR newsletter. Main thing I would say is to not give af if they say no. Don’t place your self worth on whether or not you get a meeting, just figure out what to change and do better next time. Also, try out different openers, permission based or I’ve even found success asking “how’ve you been” instead of how are you doing for a pattern interrupt.

I’m looking for some advice and/or to vent a little. I’ve been looking for a sales job specifically to pivot into tech sales and I’m getting rejected non stop and it’s really starting to weigh on me and ruin my confidence.

The positives are, I’m actually getting interviews- about 5 so far, I get to the later/last rounds but can’t seem to close the deal. I’ve tried learning from each experience, and taking that as growth for the next interview but it hasn’t worked.
I have 7yrs total sales exp.

Any idea how to search LI based on LinkedIn employees (with profiles) not the range or best way to prospect into this segment?

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.

So about quiet quitting, at another job I was in I felt I was getting more and more tacked onto my job and picking up the slack of everyone else. I told my boss that I was doing work that was in someone else’s job description and it would be nice if they could help me out by doing their job. He told me, “But you’re so much better at it.” Looking back, I think the whole team was quiet quitting and he was resting on me and so I real quit. What are ya’lls thoughts? Have you ever done it?

I heard that internal candidates have much lower salary ranges for promotions / transferring teams. So much so that some people will leave the company a year just to come back to a more competitive offer.

I am in the running for a 2 band level promotion - if / when it gets to salary discussions, should I still try to negotiate? What are peoples thoughts? I would be going from an entry level role for 1 year to a senior role, but I still want a fair compensation compared to other hires.
