I love that it was a look in the day in the life of a salesperson just a typical day their day and what they do step by step and how they plan ahead an it introduced the sales environment

[@mccq5913]

I like her advice. It’s not about being promoted or getting a title, but it’s all about experiencing and learning different skills and being able to share them.

[@Indeed]

So glad that you learned something from, Meg! She's a superstar 🤩

[@studypointmysmarttechz5921]

Hello I have 3 years of experience as pharmaceutical Sales Representative in india. Am I eligible to applying a job for Canada in same field from india.

[@russellharris1299]

This was a good video but I really appreciated the ending, the whole time she was very monotone, but at the end she was laughing and showing her personality & that was cool

[@GrowWithWill]

Wow, I didn't know that a day in a life of a sales rep can get THIS busy! I'm sure that this will be helpful for folks that are trying to get in this industry. Great video!

[@Indeed]

Meg definitely has a busy day but, according to her, it's definitely worth it 🙌

[@jacobderda8648]

This is just a great way to make the world a better place🙏🏻

[@hannahcalton3611]

Go Meg! Go Bev! this is awesome!!

[@shayroshan3546]

[@sunriseeternity300]

Good info. Thank you #enjoylife

[@theroyalone7588]

Plan my work and work my plan . Nice

[@studypointmysmarttechz5921]

How will they count their working hours? To pay dollars/hours sallery?

[@aslanidismichail7368]

most of this mf paying by commission, so as you understand all that wonderful rant about experience and skills, it is a simple fact, that if you do not bring costumers, you are not getting paid. And to be honest, if you are not preforming well and you are as they say self-employed, they can fire you up, and that will be the end of the story.

[@ANtr431]

"Greet anybody who´s here". On your phone? Lol.

[@TheBlackProductionz]

Can we get a video for Product Manager?

[@Femititi100]

Thank you! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 alot of 💎

[@jiahri2486]

This is dishonest. A majority of sales positions are still "dial and smile" with cold calling and hitting unreal quotas. There is a reason sales positions are now called anything but sales such as "field marketing" "account manager" "marketing rep"

[@verizonboy9]

Sales is all about people making shere to keep time management keys to success you will always here more nos then yes

[@palestinalibre7]

nicee
