Join a sales job and setup your own company one day

Do you have the desire to set up your company but don't have enough capital to invest? In such a case, it is better to join a sales job. Earn both money and experience in a short period. A sales job is the only profession where you get bonus and incentives, apart from your salary.

You can say that "Sky is the limit" in a sales job. If you work for few years in sales, you can earn a hefty amount so that you can setup your start-up. On top of that, the experience that you will garner will help you become a successful entrepreneur.

Selling things is not an easy task. There are more than dozens of companies in the market who are selling the same product. Along with hard work, you have to work very smartly to convince the customers that the brand for which you are working is the best and that's why he/she should buy the products from your company.

If you are planning to join sales department, be prepared to work hard for long hours.

The sales career has lots of challenges, excitement, demand as well as rewards. The life of a salesperson is not like the one portrayed in movies as struggling on the road, no interaction with fellow colleagues, trying to sell the product to various prospecting customers. But this is not the reality in the era of mobile technology.

Due to the emergence of Internet-based tools such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, live chat on a website, selling has become quite comfortable because customers also participate in a sales process.

Sales make people successful. Selling is involved in whatever job you do. People sell their ideas, outlook, and thoughts every day- no matter what profession they are associated with.

Selling is very important for any kind of business. Look at Gary Kopervas, the chief creative strategist at Backe Digital Brand Communications. He describes his job as a salesman who sells ideas through ads. Selling is associated with every job, directly or indirectly, and it is a vital component of every job.

Tom Hopkins, who was a college dropout, became a millionaire before he was thirty. He was not from a wealthy family. However, he established his empire after joining a sales job. He is also a renowned author, speaker and sales coach at Tom Hopkins International.

Selling is the only profession which fulfills your dream of becoming a billionaire, even if you are not a highly qualified person.

Yes

Yes, I think that a successful salesman can be a successful entrepreneur. 

Nonetheless, he/she still needs to add managerial and business administration skills into his already flourishing sales skills.
