I mostly worked in inside sales. I did a lot of cold calling, I collaborated with outside reps, and of course I did my share of customer service.
Sometimes, though, I’d head out into the field to do some actual in-person selling which, I have to say, I liked better.
Not to brag, but I’m fairly likable and good in a room. If you think you might possibly consider maybe one day doing business with me, it’s a done deal if I can get some face time.
That being said, success wasn’t always guaranteed, and this scenario happened to me a few times.
Sigh …
