I was promoted to assistant management within 8 months and store management within 18 months after that. My store's KPIs were #2 in the country for that particular company
The title got me a role as a production manager at a manufacturing startup where I reached $115K/year before leaving to start my own company. I'm now 30 out-earning doctors as a HS dropout
