    Yes, very hard. Not just having one great quarter - but doing it Quarter after Quarter, Year after Year.
    But also so rewarding!!

    Burnout is a major factor in people either leaving tech sales altogether, or they simply hate the grind of a startup and look to go to a place like Salesforce, Oracle, etc where they can make a nice living and not have the constant pressure of heavy personal PG effort and intensive outbound sales motions.

      Where do those go who burn out in sales? Customer Success or Marketing?

    According to Salesforce, 67% of sales reps don’t expect to hit their quota this year. Why don't they just work harder? 😂 Dude, not everything in life is determined by your own actions.

      Yes it is you just don’t work hard enough or learned advanced skills. But don’t listen to me I only made 650k this year working in tech sales keep your limiting mindset.

      This guy is responsible for where I’m at now, If I never took a chance on myself I would still be working minimum wage.

    If you get fired as an AE, how hard is it to get a job as an AE at a different company, given that you have that lay off following you around.

      getting fired can make the job search more challenging

      1-2 years of experience as an AE? You're cooked
      5+? You're fine

    How much % easier is an SDR role in comparison to an AE role? And why!

    • @TrentDressel
      @TrentDressel  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      SDR is easier bc they generate pipe and don't close deals, AEs generate pipe and have to close deals

      @@TrentDressel I think it depends on the company. In my company, no AEs generate pipeline. They take the leads from the BDRs and run demos, mid-trial calls, trial wrap-up calls, etc
