My friend is currently applying for SDR positions, she currently is self employed as a nail tech where she handles a reoccurring book of business and in the past she has had some retail sales experience. Should I put her nail tech business on her resume?

Yeah, still transferable skills from it tbh

For sure. But use SDR abbreviations to jazz it up.

Yes, she is a small business owner which has more challenges than you think.

Why not? She will get noticed easily with that. She is a business owner which means she is more inclined to do better in the sales. Just me saying.

like

Has she considered having her resume edited by a professional to showcase her special skills? Try www.prsnbranding.com. They do a great job with resumes.

Yes it’s better than having a gap. She can also share examples of how she built her book of business and ways she builds rapport with “prospects”. All transferable skills

With a shift in Corporate direction, our comp/bonus/incentive plan had historically been based on overall opportunity booking values. The Corporate shift is to drive more ARR and client migration sales (from legacy products, looking for modernization). With that, the booking values for these are significantly lower than net new deals. Has anyone been involved in a paradigm shift like this and proven that the paid incentives/bonuses end up comparable with more deals at less overall dollar value?
