high school dropout 👉 retail salesperson
👉 property manager 👉 sdr 👉 community manager

I stumbled into sales by accident and mostly out of desperation.

I was freshly 18, and I was broke as hell.

For weeks I had been applying to basic customer service/sales jobs online.
But wasn't getting a single call back.

I resorted to printing out my sad little resume, and walking around shopping malls, basically begging for a job at every single store.

Eventually, a manager at Men's Warehouse took pity on me, and offered me a position renting tuxedos at minimum wage.

In between clients, I would leave the rental desk (yes I got in trouble for this a lot) and hang out on the sales-floor, helping clients pick out their next suit for an interview or prom.

Soon I was out-selling the commissioned sales reps. And I was addicted to it.

That job led me to 4 years in retail, selling everything from luxury skincare, to $500 swimsuits, to engagement rings.

From there I spent three years in multi-family property management, building out the leasing systems that would bring our rent from $800 to $2100.

I learned a lot, but ended up burnt out and bored.

I knew I didn't want to be on call 24/7 like with property management.

But I also didn't want to go back to the low wages and crazy hours of retail.

I thought I might have to leave sales entirely.
Should I go to college?
Get into marketing?

One day I stumbled across a video about this thing called "saas sales."

"Nah." I thought. "No one would hire me."

But I was so wrong.

I researched and studied, and after a few panic attacks, decided to take the leap.

Within three weeks I had a brand new career as an SDR (how crazy is that????)

I started posting about my cold calling struggles on LinkedIn, and found an amazing community of industry veterans, founder, marketers and more.

Which led me to my true passion...
