Having started by career in consulting and now in sales, I actually miss consulting. What I don't get from sales is the feeling that what I do actually solves my client's problem. But, my advice is to try consulting, that way in a few years you'll have the experience to know which career (of those two) suits you better.
Well, we provide all the tools for them to solve the problems themselves. But at the end of the day, they actually have to pick up the hammer and smack the nail. Too often, they want to only manage a contractor who will smack the nail for them.
what function area you are in? I’m on GTS ALE end and i could never leave our sales role for consulting. it’s so much more work for less pay.
I’m trying to switch to sales. 15 years experience in Strat/MarComms. I’m struggling to find a sales role that will take a “chance” on someone without direct sales experience. How did you switch, even though the other way?
As a previous consultant who switched to a sales role at my firm, I couldn’t be more inspired and honored to fill this role. I feel like I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be and am grateful my company is investing in my growth and taking a chance on me. The oops are out there, you just have to find them. I think there’s A TON of value coming from a customer obsessed delivery role and am excited to keep learning and growing.
