Chapters

So how much should a salesperson be making before they can give sales advice? I'm going to say minimum of 500,000 a year. Now, why do I say that? I think that's what most salespeople want to make. Like, I think most salespeople across any industry want to make minimum 250, 300,000 a year. If they're going to learn how to do that, how would they ever be able to learn from a trainer who never made that themselves? That would be impossible, right? Like, I've seen people literally on social media that I know when they were in sales, only made 200,000, 250,000 a year. And all these people are, like, taking their courses, like, I want to make 350,000, 400,000. I want to be great. And I'm like, how are they ever going to make three or four hundred thousand a year from a trainer who never made that themselves? Like, that's going to be impossible because you're never going to learn 100% of what that trainer knows. Probably want to be trained by someone who made over a million dollars a year, maybe a couple million dollars a year as a salesperson, because what if you could master 50% and now you're making 7 or 800 grand a year or something like that?
