Tired of a low paying 9-5? Ready for a change but don't know where to start?
Here is all you need to land an entry level Sales job in tech making AT LEAST $80k 👇👇🤑🤑
Tbt to when you could make a career out of riding the 9month ramp with guaranteed OTE period and then job hop into the next role WITH a paybump
Some people made out like bandits.
- 4 roles, 6mo each, OTE pay
No free lunch tho,
the sales gods came to collect
The smart ones did 1-2 strategic job hops, upgraded tittle, and buckled down
Promos that used to take 9mo now take 18mo, smart ones squeezed that out and are cruising now
@BowTiedCocoon The amount of careers that got derailed because of greedy job hopping in '21 and '22 is rarely discussed.
Many ended up getting laid off because they wanted to MAXIMISE THE BASE PAY rather than focus on building a reputation and competence in an org that was already solid.
For SDR roles, yes. SDR is truly entry level. They want motivated talent that is willing to prove they can survive and thrive. As someone said in the past, “its an incubator role”
Any non sales exp you just have to sell it during the interview on how it made you a ready seller or gave you transferable skills
Most SDRs comes straight out of college, restaurant exp, random corporate exp, ex military, etc. Most font have sales backgrounds at all
Shoot your shot
Listen to SerRoy
Max pain feels to be behind us
Tech Sales cleansed itself of tourists and became a niche career once again...
We might never experience Covid buying/careerMobility frenzy days ever again but there's hope

There are 350ish decent quality entry-level jobs, bullish
Don't see anyone talking about it but the layoff bloodbath is over. Open tech jobs are up 37% from the bottom in March. Combine that with interest rates heading down + likely trump win, we should be back to 2019 esque job market by 2026.
Tech equity/rsu's are the biggest white/black pills
If you get lucky and build/work for the right trend+people at the right time AND stick around long enough, life changing
White pill -
TWO years ago Bridge was created
Last week it was acquired for $1.1B
Black pill -
Join Asana 2021, hold until 2023
Keep rolling the dice
Agreed
mine doesnt offer FBTC or IBIT, id go hard on those
but Strike x ColdCard do it even better
FXAIX is nice enough
it really depends on the 401k setup and funds available.
10% penalty is sexy af, mine only allows early withdrawal if you leave Co or someone dies in your fam
Y'all believers in employer sponsored 401k?
% of your pre-tax income taken out and siloed in an account with 5-25 pre-selected vehicles for you to invest in and HODL until age 60
Sounds like a passive ponzi to me...
No early withdrawals unless "hardship" or you leave the company OR you turn 59.5😂
Better spent in crypto, biz attempts, and/or fam/gf/friends quality time when young ALIVE and full of poooowwwwweeerrrr
Unicorns with Equity/RSUs that are liquid and worth something create two interesting types
5-8yrs ago they took a random role, straight out of college for $80-150k and some equity per year with 0 expectations
5+yr later their equity is mid/high-6figs, some even 7figs
(not counting personal investments)
If they stick around,
Type A,
Brings that C-Suite/Founder Aura + contagious gratefulness for life
Type B,
Believes they are the most gifted person alive, who is untouchable and worthy of all
