I’ve just started my business. I would say that when my take home from that is 80% of my job while working on that on the side - I would make the jump and assume I could surpass my income with giving it up 100%

But I would try and exhaust like a 3 month sabbatical or something of that nature first.

Hi Everyone! I’ve been in direct sales and B2C companies for the last 15 years, selling software and supplements. Post pandemic I’ve grown tired of sales. I’ve been craving change but I’m at a loss on where my skills would valuable. The last decade I’ve been fortunate enough to move into management, mentoring sales/account managers. I’ve been moved a few times to turn around underperforming customer service and sales teams and it’s become a unique skill. Could I lean on some of you for advice?🙂

6th year - over 2000 hours, great review last year, this year they said will not promote me. They will do a mid year review early next year and if still no good, will discuss “transition” plan.
