Job Responsibilities
Goal # 1: increase sales/revenue for the company.
Goal #2: manage a team of 15 sales associates.
Managing the team based on the phone activities and motivation can be
challenging. I
also have to attend multiple meetings with other departments to increase
efficiency and
attend to issues.

Uppers
Good salary and commission potential.
|
Downers
Lots of stress in sales management. The bottom line is revenue for upper
management.
They want to see good numbers and if they don't, they come to you first!
|
Lifestyle
Extra hours are sometimes required to get the job done. Managing a team also
means you have to be selfless and also attend to the needs of the team.
|
Compensation
$65K + commissions.

Advice to Jobseekers
Start out in sales and do well! Get 1-2 years under your belt and move into a
senior position- maybe outside sales? Software is booming right now - especially
in the Boston
area.
