I just got fired from my sales job

I wasn't meeting my numbers. I was fired about 3 months in. This is about the 3rd sales job I was fired 3 months in for not performing. I'm in big trouble as I'm 10K in credit card debt too.

Help me misc

Maybe you just suck as a salesman? Maybe dumb it down a bit and work somewhere with easier products to sell.

But you're red and this is probably just BS.

I got a call from a telemarker today who claimed his name was Mike in a very distinct Indian accent. I said no, your name is not Mike, tell me your real name. He hung up (srs)

Try a company thats selling easier products.

Or just throw in the towel because its probably not the complexity of the products, you probably just suck.

Lol at Johnvee giving advice about getting a job.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Sales is one of those things where anyone could do it but few people can. It's also one of those things where you are either a Zero or a Hero.

The alternative is that you were never a salesman.

Honestly man as a sales brah myself it’s about the 3 t’s territory, timing and talent. Only one of those is in your control.

So don’t sweat it. It’s very possible you’re a talented salesman but the timing wasn’t right and the territory you were handed sucks.

Nah, I am given leads and I have to convert them. I'm convinced the leads I was given were awful. No one wanted to buy what I was trying to sell despite calling and emailing them multiple times.

I might exit sales and try to go into HR

Yeah man that’s not your fault then. Sometimes the product is just awful and the best salesperson in the world wouldn’t be able to sell it.

HR seems pretty gay tho tbh
