Hmm, interesting topic to discuss. I wanna join the conversation and tell you about my path. As a sales manager, my journey into this role began with a deep-rooted passion for connecting with people and a natural flair for persuasion. It all started during my college years when I pursued a degree in business administration with a focus on marketing. From the moment I stepped into my first sales class, I was captivated by the art of selling and the limitless potential it held. During my time in college, I actively sought out opportunities to gain practical experience in sales. I participated in internships with various companies, both large and small, to learn the ropes and understand the dynamics of different industries. Though I have just quit my previous job, and started an account on forex with a broker (of course with the question is forex com legit). However, I will be forever attached to sales and I hope I will soon get into it again.

where did u work before u quit?

I am a retired teacher...Early Childhood Specialist who left the classroom after 25+ years in 2021. My husband owns the company I work for now, and had been asking me to come be the QCM for a long time. I had been his proofreader for years and he just wanted me to do all the writing!

 

Anyway, I finally caved and came on board. I started working right away to obtain SQF Certification. We achieved that and Rainforest Alliance within my first year. I am thankful for this forum; it is full of great information!
