Thanks for the insight! I've been working in sales for 2 year. Sales is a great way to earn a large income FAST. I am currently saving a large percentage of my commissions and hoping to eventually phase out of sales as well to start my own business.
That's a bold move, man! For the folks out there thinking of trying to take the leap of faith, assess your situation and trust yourself. Glad it worked out well for you!
I got my ADR job because of you. Thank you Patrick
Appreciate it Timeteo. Congrats!
Any update?
Amazing Video Patrick. Thanks for sharing your story!
Really great advice. Much appreciated outlook.
Love hearing the thought process of your journey! 😄
Thanks Lucy!
I've been working as a teacher for the past 5 years, now I want to make a shift and change careers, I found sells my ideal profession, I have an interview in three days wish me luck guys
Best of luck!
I have been following you for two years now and absolutely love the quality of your videos. Its been amazing watching you grow and help people like me.
Appreciate it Conor!
Great video Patrick! I would love to see more personal videos like this one
Thanks Rama, I'll try to make more on these topics.
So glad you started this channel!
Thanks
Hello Patrick,
I've also started this year my Import export business by leaving a job. And It's been 8 months since I tried to find a potential client (B2B) for my products till now. I faced many rejections during the sales call. I've also learned a lot from your videos, it helps me to upgrade myself to be better. So my point is to Never Give Up in our life, because I know one day everything we will get what we are wanted in our life. And the same thing happened to you. You motivated me through this video.
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
❤FROM 🇮🇳
Thanks for sharing Shubham.
That point about not having to worry about going backwards after you know how to sell is a good one 👍
Keep up the good work and content bro!
Appreciate it Isaiah!
It looks like the skill of selling is really important especially tech sales.. glad that i'm on the right path
i love your content it's so helpful for me, so thnaks for you effort ❤❤❤
Your lighting upgrade is looking really good
Appreciate it Nikil.
That's inspirational
Thank you.
hey man. i like you. your my favorite channel now
Patrick I'm designer it is still glad but After you i have wish to think like you.
Would really love to hear more about your experiences especially even how you started up this food and beverage organization. And what you really learn from that you know for me what would be important is what was the drive that made this seem like it would be an ideal investment and then what ended up being the catalyst that kind of moved you away from that
Thanks Jordan, I'll see if I can make a video about this in the future.
hey man, what camera do you use to record the videos? Looks amazing
Hi Patrick,
I am currently working in food and beverage and trying to break into the tech sales world. Do you have any tips or suggestions on how to get over the hump and break into a company as a BDR or AE.
I would argue the more you make doesn't necessarily mean you work more hours. Leverage is the key word. I recommend watching some videos on that, in particular, Alex Romezi is great.
You're a risk taker! Wow! Jump then think how to fly HAHA most will prolly learn to fly first before they jump :D but it has principles in it as well. I am new in sales like 2 weeks! and I am thinking how I can improve myself and I am learning a lot from you, I like it when you said that know yourself and your mission, because it will direct the course of your life. I couldn't agree more.
amazing please slow down
Right?
Right 👍
You are gr8! Do you freelance?
Patrick, how do I create a PoC proposal for interview?
This is cool
Thanks James.

Can you give me advise? I finished my tech sales cert and I’m struggling finding anything.
How much did you have saved before the jump? I'd really love to know that. I will be in a similar position soon but I guess it's subjective.
I'm looking for a remote Sr. AE role with a US based SaaS company. What portals should I check out for? I'm from India.
I quit my 4 figure job to pursue tech sales. I still haven't found a job yet. I will continue to stay positive ‼️
So you were making 9000 a year?
Any update?
Bold move. Wish I had that courage. You talk very fast, please slow down a bit or add text or summarize at the end? Just a suggestion.
May I ask why Thailand? Does is have business reason or it was a personal choice?
I did what you did BUT backwards... started biz first now I'm looking into getting a sales job because I'm running out of funding :(
Does tech sales and anything similar take a long time to get into? I have a basic fundamental understanding of sales & lead-gen (books and courses I took) so I'm hoping that would be enough to jump in and start working/selling + plus continue learning & practicing. Great video btw!
Great story but you kind of lost me when you said Food and beverage is difficult. I would agree, all new endeavors could be deemed difficult until you figure out a working formula. My 2 cents. Keep creating cool vids by the way.
Because 6 figures in silicon valley is like minimum wage in the rest of America?
I'm currently in tech, I have never even known or thought about tech sales. Thanks for this video, do you need a certain degree for tech sales or none required? Very interesting videos!
You don't need a degree. Some jobs prefer them, but they're not necessary. There are certs in tech sales you can acquire, but those are not necessary either.
It's the worst. Don't do it
I've been working as rep for a long time. The mission is retirement, without a doubt.
Does anyone know if after finishing the sales legacy you get a certificate
That would be a good answer, like to know too
"Right?" Count : at least 49
How do you get your foot in the door into sales with no experience or degree?
You dont need a Degree or Any Experience at all. Just sign up for a Tech Bootcamp like Careerlist Or Course Carees.
👍
Thanks Dinesh
How can I communicate with you individually?
Hey Patrick! I love your videos in general and your teaching definitely is useful.
But you've been in tech sales for less than 4 years right? Your skillset is valuable for sure but your experience imo isn't long and credible enough for me to pay for a course by you
Just my 2 cents :)
Was cool till you said NFTs 😂
lmfao of course your "business" is selling a course.
Than you Patrick!
Your concise articulation is aligned with my view points and is encouraging to know anyone can accomplish our own goals!
Jump and learn to fly after! 🫡
