Word choice. Record yourself during a conversation or meeting then see if AI can give suggestions on how to phrase things a bit differently to get positive responses. Yes, it seems a bit much, but I had an employee do this and it changed her responses to presentations.

Looking to get into SaaS sales but my experience is in construction and fine furniture (I was a sales manager and was able to lead my team of 4 people to consistently hit 450k monthly targets). I did that for almost 2 years before making the switch. I miss sales, though. Does anyone have any connections to companies looking? I have also considered a sales analyst role considering that I am moderately versed in Salesforce and have worked both the customer facing and sales generating side. TIA!
