If you've dabbled in different kinds of sales jobs, which one did you enjoy the most, and what are your reasons? I've been in car sales forever and really want to try something else out. I know I can't do tech sales, even though that's seemingly where the money's at. What else can I try given my experience?

I was interviewed for a major tech player in the hospitality industry, had 2 interviews which for the first one the recruiter was late, and didn't confirm the interview while I emaild her to make sure I do have an interview.

How would someone coming from mostly retail wireless sales get into the tech sales industry? I have been a top performer in every sales job that I have had since I started my career almost 10 years ago.

I currently work out in the field selling to customers that have no idea I am coming and I consistently perform at the top of my market.

I really want something that’s remote and steady, any recommendations on how to spruce myself up?
