Do sales expectations vary between strategy focused vs implementation focused consulting practices?

Context: in my previous gig I focused on strategy & I didn’t feel like Ms were being pushed to make sales all the time, but I was further away from that level. In my current (staff aug) gig, leaders seem to focus less on assessing whether the client really needs us/ how we can help, and more on making a sale. Is this difference a result of the type of work each team sells?

Any Project Management or Chief of Staff roles anyone know about? I’m looking to make a switch into the startup space.

Do you have a favorite project management software or toolkit?

Anyone ever work on a profitability assessment / improvement? Starting a project to optimize shipping margin based off 8 parameters. Never done something like this before, but first thought (cont.)

Hi. I work as a project manager for an international non-government organisation based in Washington DC. I am currently living in France and have a rate of 3200USD gross per month. I have been in the org for 3years now & has been asked to renew my contract for another year as a consultant (this means no paid leave, bonuses and other benefits). My boss says he is very happy with my work and promised to pay me more next year. How much increase do you think I should ask for?

I put in a lot of effort to show my client properties that fit their requirements, but they ended up working with a different agent just because they wandered across an open house. I'm so frustrated right now. Has anyone else experienced this?

I was recently promoted to a new position at my company. I'm so excited to be taking on this new challenge, but it's not going as well as I had hoped.

I've been given a lot of responsibilities, which is great. But I don't feel like any of them are being prioritized or delegated appropriately. I'm getting a lot of pressure from my manager, who is quite demanding and doesn't seem to understand that I need time to get things done and learn new skills.
