TheInquisitor Podcast with Marcus Cauchi

A Young, Successful Salesperson's View Of The Reality Of The Early Years In The Sales Profession


Listen Later

#EmilyLam is a bright, capable, young sales professional. She shares her experience of the first 5 years in professional selling. It's not a pretty story. 

Lies, misinformation, lack of leadership, bad management, high turnover, sink or swim mentality, non-existent onboarding and only product training, learning to find her own way leading to significant waste, burnout and mental stress at the entry level of sales.

Happily, Emily has found her feet in a company that looks after her development, trains her and actually delivers what they promised at interview.

Unfortunately, junior salespeople are so often treated like a commodity, being churned and burned by greedy, unscrupulous and incompetent management and leadership.

Our young salespeople deserve better. They deserve the truth. they deserve managers who are competent. They deserve training and support, realistic targets and compensating fairly. They want to learn, grow, develop. They want careers and guidance, mentoring, training, coaching. They love to perform well. not to be left to drown.
