Attract the Right Job or Clientele:

Each Experience is An Opportunity for Career and Business Growth

The question, ‘Do you think singularly or collectively?’ comes to mind upon reviewing my career journey from corporate sales to entrepreneurship. My experience proves they are in opposite corners of a ‘boxing ring,’ providing remarkable lessons for the do’s and don’ts and how to improve our unique journeys. 

Accordingly, our blog offers insights into how each experience is an opportunity for career and business growth.

An Opportunity for Career and Business Growth

I define ‘thinking singularly’ as being highly competitive and secretive. This concept was necessary in corporate sales to achieve the monthly quota set plus earn the bonuses and yearly trips awarded to the top producers. Everyone wanted to be gifted the bonuses and the trips, but the only way to do so was to be secretive and highly competitive to reach the top of the sales pyramid.

The Sales Pros of Competition

As a competitive salesperson, it’s wise to listen to the salespeople who brag about their upcoming sales. Moreover, listen to the details about how they ‘entice’ their prospects to purchase. 

Moreover, listen for the sale amount; if you do not hear the amount spoken, inquire about their expectations. As a competitive person, the sum of all sales in process indicates what you must accomplish each month, plus more to be the top winner and earn the rewards! ‘Let the games begin!’

The ‘Sales Cons’ of Competition

Sadly, ‘con’ can be taken two ways, and both apply to the sales profession. The first and the worst is those who are not truthful on any level, and for the salespeople who fit the description, their clientele will quickly fade away. 

The second definition of the ‘sales con’ or against competitiveness is recognizing that companies can do much better if they instill a collaborative mindset among sales professionals. It isn’t ridiculous because salespeople typically are appointed to varying clients or territories, so why not work collaboratively? The answer is in your hands.

Entrepreneurship

On a different level, while sales direct representatives are in one direction, the world opens for entrepreneurs new to business. It doesn’t take too long to recognize that far more knowledge is necessary in varying fields with which one has little or no knowledge. Solopreneurs typically have tight budgets, making the cost of hiring various professionals a poor choice. However, the moment arrives for doing the exact opposite of what most do in the corporate sales environment—they test the idea of collaboration.

It was a critical learning point to realize that one person, one vision has only one road ahead. We cannot predict the future, and should a storm develop and create holes in the road, challenges to moving forward will quickly arise, and some may even lead to a sinkhole. However, by accepting that everyone has a unique talent and combining forces, we can expand our reach significantly and avert unforeseen storms to reach the sunny side of business, bringing a smile.

Personna Pros and Cons

In every situation, we realize the people with whom to continue conversations and those to avoid, and for business, being attentive to persona cons is vital. Otherwise, when another takes us in with a falsehood, we have everything to lose.

Before connecting and promoting another, it’s wise to research and review postings in their words. The upfront work may appear tedious, but protecting everything already in place is worth your time.

Back to You

More people observe our words, actions, and deeds than ever, making it critical to examine all our processes frequently. As times and people change, we must also change habits and procedures to proceed steadily. 

Conclusion: Each Experience is An Opportunity for Career and Business Growth

Frustration can easily take over and create poor decisions that produce inadequate outcomes. Our first duty is to ourselves, examining the pros and cons of every instance and offering to realize which will serve us best. Accordingly, when we properly deal with the cons, we know that each experience is an opportunity for career and business growth.
