@Thiago Machado We should talk about this.
Answer to thread: Start selling for a company that has already produced revenue, preferably at least $500,000 to $1,000,000 per year.
Find the fastest growing companies in a specific region - companies doing $1,000,000 - $20,000,000 in revenue - and use Linkedin.com to find the identify of their head recruiter in sales.
Ask about the margins in the game.
Ask about business development agreements.
Aim for industries in which you can land $5,000 - $10,000 minimum paydays for landing clients, with the potential for $100,000+ paydays for larger clients.
Aim for the big industries: Energy, construction, tech, healthcare, etc.
Uber, cheers for replying to the thread mate. This is some primo advice. I actually got a feel for it earlier in the interview/conversation you posted on the forum recently in three parts. Listening to rainmaker this morning too. Some parts have already clicked with big "ah-ha" moments.
Would you say cutting my teeth on high volume telemarketing would be a good way to hone the skills first?
I can see my way to doing this web dev referral work to making 50k or so very reasonably, with the possibility of 100k with the right kind of upsells, this is a very realistic number and I think can be expanded greatly. This is while still working my part time job. My thinking is that i'll nail down the fundamentals of selling this way then dive into the next level shit soon after (sooner if I really nail it).
This is coming from zero sales experience.
