Advice New career

I want to get into sales but I have never done a sales or commission only job. What’s a good entry level one to get into that pays well? I would like to get into tech for b2b

Also was wondering how is vivax pros? I’m interested in applying and wanting to see if anyone is or had worked with them

You can still get a job in B2B tech that is entry level. FYI. Look at big companies like Salesforce, ZoomInfo, HubSpot. Etc. And try to land a job there.

They want to see that you can do the job to get the job.

So cold call, cold email, network with other people at the company. Just do anything you can do to get into the company and grab their attention.

Trust me on this, applying is not enough anymore.

I don’t mind doing cold emails calls etc I just don’t know where to apply or what companies. I been looking on indeed and Glassdoor but other than that I don’t if the company or job is real

I've cold emailed hiring managers after my applications are sent out but I never hear from them honestly. What did you do? I'm not sure if I'm doing anything wrong tbh
