I’ve heard tech sales pays more than strategy & ops at FAANG? Is that true? How difficult is the tech sales role? Anyone here move from strategy to sales?

Sales in general will always pay very well if you’re good at it. A good friend of mine sells forklifts and makes $250k. My BIL does commercial real estate and makes over $1m. Partners sell consulting services and make $1m+. Plenty of tech sales make $500k+, plenty of them also make $75k

Imagine only the sales part of consulting with none of the implementation. There you go.

I’ve worked in sales for 12 years (8 years retail sales and management, 4 years inside tech sales and management). I’m feeling the burn and looking for something else in the tech field. I’m making $140k. I have a college degree but no marketing, engineering, or product experience. What other departments/jobs could I jump to and still keep close to my OTE? I’m pretty good at Salesforce and have thought about a SFDC admin type role, but that’s all I’ve thought of so far.
