TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR SALES CAREER
What would it mean to you to have no boss telling you what to do?
To work the hours that suited you, but to earn MORE than you do now?
Being in sales can be a fantastic job. The thrill of using your people skills to get in front of a client and close a deal. The buzz when you hit your target each month. The nice jump in your bank balance every payday and having the money to buy life’s luxuries for yourself and your family.
But what about the downside? The target that gets increased every time you do well (but oddly enough, not reduced if you have a bad month); being told you can’t take time off because it’s month/quarter/year end; the boss who doesn’t know half as much as you but thinks he/she knows best; the pressure to deliver time after time.
Taking the money out of the equation, if you were to rate your job between 1 and 5 with 1 being very unhappy and 5 being completely happy where would you be? Unless you can honestly give a mark of 4 or 5, it’s time to ask yourself if you are prepared to carry on for the rest of your career feeling this way? Will you look back in 5 years time and say ‘I should have left 6 years ago’?

My name is Tania Houston and I managed to break away from the rat race, yet now earn more than I did in my corporate job. My hours are under my own control, and my earnings are too.
I’m not a millionaire, nor is my life entirely stress free and easy money. I’m not doing network marketing, pyramid selling, stuffing envelopes or any other business that only 1% of people succeed at. But I do have a great business as do hundreds of others up and down the UK. Let me tell you a bit more about what I do, and give you some idea if you would be suited to do the same. Read more…
