New to the Bowl, greetings to all. I have a question for the sales leaders in the group about the design of sales comp plans. We are in professional services and our customers are about 50:50 retained and project-based. As such, we have an appetite for steady new business acquisition in addition to a need to provide excellent account management. Our gigs are usually in the 150K-750K range. Our BD process is very consultative, 99% of our leads are inbound. <more...>

We have a high paying client that texts us ( me the other associate and the partner) at a late hour - usually 3 a.m. the first time the client did it, the partner wasn’t on the thread so I told him about it and he said he’d talk to the client.

I have an interview outside my company and will only take a second interview/the job if the pay is right. How hard is appropriate to push to get a firm salary range in a first round interview? I don’t want to waste anyones time or resources if I’d turn down the job for pay at the end

Is there a risk/consequence to buying a home saying it’s going to be for “personal” and then not actually living in it and instead renting it out for investment purposes? I don’t want to pay a higher down payment or interest rate with buying an “investment property”. Has anyone ever finessed this?

Rip anyone with a variable rate mortgage

My company recently changed my commission plan by capping half of our variable payout, resulting in the sales reps making roughly 30% less on commission checks when going over quota. Obviously this has crushed spirits, and I’ve lost any motivation to crush quota. How do I stay motivated ? Or is it time to find a new job?

Transitioning out of a small business owner role as a manufacturers rep in the foodservice industry and looking to transition into tech sales in or around the Austin area.

Hey everyone! I’m a couple months in of trying to find a SDR role. Does anyone have any advice for interviews or just to stand out from the crowd? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Anybody else feel unworthy of this career? When it comes to stack rankings I’m generally in the top 50% of reps at companies I’ve worked for. On good years I’ll get into top 20%.

It seems every sales job posting is looking for people who have blown out their number every single year. I just don’t see how this is even possible, I’ve worked plenty of places where they gave us an unachievable target so nobody hit their number in a given year.

Thank you!

Interviewed at a company and then they were bought out. They are going through a merger now. I’m second guessing this opportunity because of the recent merger. I loved the hiring manager and know she would be a dream to work for. Thoughts on joining a company recently acquired? It’s a sales role.

Apart from salary what else do you negotiate in your sales account executive contract?

Just to add on to my recent post, as a potential Associate Account Executive, im wondering what resources everyone has used specifically to become comfortable with pitch decks!

Any specific resources/tools?

Keep making history!

The new company I work for Imports Sustainable Restaurant Products. And I focus on long term sales cycles. Nothing too sexy about it tbh.

Hello everyone. I'm currently in healthcare sales and I was interested in AE roles because the pay seems good however every entry AE role I've applied at the base is low...like 30-50k low..is that the going rate for entry AE? The OTE isn't that high either, the last AE job I interviewed for had a 50k OTE..and that's not enough for me in this economy...I have a four year degree and 2 years of sales experience..the pay just seems..really low. Thanks

I’m so done with sales. I’m burnt out and uninspired with my job. The pay is nice, but I need something more fulfilling and less stressful. I want to be able to keep working while I figure out my “why” but I don’t want to rip my hair out in the process. *7 YOE, 6 mid market, 1 enterprise* Any ideas for an easy transition job away from sales that isn’t a giant pay cut?

What are your thoughts on having your webcam on/off for meetings with prospects? Do you have them turn it on, differences in industries for value of face-to-face, etc?
