If you’re even thinking about it then, yes.

I'd recommend adding more thought and context into your question if you'd like any meaningful answer.

If you do it you might never be taken seriously for a hunting role again. So be very careful about this decision. As a hiring manager for sales hunters, if I see someone who moved from a rainmaker role to a farmer role I will likely not consider their resume.

Hello everyone,

I am looking to start a career as a solutions consultant and am wondering if there are any certifications that you would recommend that would help give me an edge.

I am currently interviewing for Netsuite but if I do not end up getting the job, will definitely apply for similar roles at other companies.

I have seen online websites suggest project management certs or sales certs. I wanted to post in here to see if there were any recommendations that you all had.

SalesForce folks, a recruiter reached out for an opportunity to interview for a AE position in my specialty. I noticed there is also an opp available locally for a Strategic Account Manager in my vertical as well.
Any one know of pay difference between the two, responsibilities/expectations, how they are viewed in the org itself?
I understand they are different but in my job today, I handle both roles so can go in either direction.
Appreciate any input.
