    I loved this video!!! I’m an SDR too and have had a really slow, uneventful week.. feeling slightly discouraged if I’m honest but this makes me feel less alone 🥹 wishing you all the best and I’m definitely subscribing hehe ❤️

    This is the state of a channel where you just have to stay on the grind. Because it’s already blooming

    How do you stay motivated when, to your point, a week has gone by and you haven’t been able to book a meeting?

    • @ricezhangg
      @ricezhangg  ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I think for me, there was a lot of pressure to book meetings, but it was also a startup so we were refining our sales process. Because there wasnt a robust process in place, my manager was more on the forgiving side because we were all trying to learn on the go. In terms of motivation, I kind of lost it eventually.... & ended up switching to operations HAHA Personally I think monetary motivation is the only thing that kept me going in sales haha What about you?

    Is your job remote are most tech sales jobs remote do you get an hourly wage plus commission or just commission

    • @ricezhangg
      @ricezhangg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Most tech sales jobs are salary + commission! If you see for example $100,000 OTE earnings in the job description it means if you meet the sales target, you can expect to earn 100k that year!

    Do you think tech sales would be a good fit for an introvert? Cold calling intimidates me because I’m not really a people person lol

    • @ricezhangg
      @ricezhangg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I’m also an introvert but our company doesn’t cold call 😅 I’m not too sure if I’d be able to handle it. I think you’d definitely get used to it after a while but in terms of how long you could do it for I’m not too sure 😭😭 Maybe you could look for smaller companies so you also have other responsibilities other than cold calling? 😊

    0:09 I notice in this video and your other tech sales video, you put k-drama/netflix at 12pm. My question is, since your job is remote, why not just have netflix/k-drama in the background or on the corner laptop screen as a minimize widget window so that you can watch Netflix all day? You would be enjoying your work so much more (not that you are not) while getting paid 85k plus (at least that is what I am assuming you get paid, lol).

    • @ricezhangg
      @ricezhangg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      For me personally, I usually like to play music instead of dramas while I work because I get distracted too easily 😅😅 If I had Netflix playing all day, I would prob end up watching netflix all day heh But Im also a little paranoid in the sense that I only use my work laptop for work purposes (just in case my company is tracking my usage). Im not sure if anyone else is like this too, but you never know😂😂
