I started my career in tech sales without any connections or support at a leading software (SaaS) company, and it changed my life. I started out making around $50,000/yr as a sales development rep, and in under 4 years by the age of 26, I was promoted 6 times and made $302,000 as a senior account executive.
I've created over 1k YouTube videos helping teach more people about this amazing career as I'm now on a mission to instill my years of industry expertise into others, allowing tech sales to change their lives just like it changed mine.
