Hi all! I’m a 2024 grad with a B.A. in PR & strategic comms who’s interested in making a career switch from marketing into sales— consulting, business + sales development/partnerships, account management, and customer success in all industries.

I have a lot of content marketing experience and have tried to frame my marketing experience into sales-focused roles but been having a little bit of trouble with it. Based upon my resume and also what I’ve said — what would be some good advice?

I am feeling hopeless. I’m a tax senior been through 4 busy seasons with Deloitte.

I don’t know who is willing to hire me because I feel pigeonholed. I’m just hating every moment with this firm right now. Any advice on what positions/companies might be best to look into?

Thanks everyone.

So my company got acquired by a large corporation. Things are getting weird, and even though I have 4 years at my company this larger company doesn't seem to have much opportunity for growth until the next year minimum. I got a job offer paying 54k more in base, while selling a more superior solution in the same industry. Would you leave your job for more money and enterprise experience or stay where you have tenure and ride it out the acquisition longer? I am selling into smb and mid market now

I have worked in sales/bd for 12+ years, but have only been in digital marketing for a little over a year. I work for a small agency that does little to no inbound marketing and all I do is cold call all day long. Does anyone have any suggestions for finding or establishing referral partners? Or any advice on how to get into a more established agency/brand for someone with sales experience but limited digital marketing experience? Anybody ever transitioned from sales to customer/client success?

Morning. Looking for help in finding the right CRM. So many out there! Any guidance. Good ones, or where to look for the best. Would love to hear thoughts!

I recently made a jump from large companies with marketing teams off 50-100+ …. To being the entire marketing team myself. I’ve seen marketing ops and analytics work well and know just enough to know that the systems and processes i inherited are NOT working well. I’d like to approach the CEO about hiring a marketing ops/digital marketing manager to be our salesforce/hubspot admin along with managing social and web analytics. What’s a reasonable salary to budget for this role?
