40-year-old salesman's sorrow

Sales is one of the few low threshold and have the opportunity to earn big money, and is also a little technology and highly skilled workers live, while more is a physical work, this career especially adapted to the newly inscribed vibrant young people need to earn money. And a 40-year-old salesman, also carrying a briefcase in the streets of the rolling stock is through sadness, perhaps in the life and work under double pressure, his long lost the passion, because of their age or physical loss of young people.     Apart from that one can speak of the mouth, he found that in addition to running his own no earning Street craft even stall garage are not. I believe that the situation of young people in most of the 20-something is not going to want, a rare sense of crisis, maybe they precisely because a large order got high, while immersed in the sea with a smile ", surging Strait tide, drifting with the waves only remember forever" hopes.     But I tell you this: If you are a salesperson who join soon, there is no clear goals in life, your career nor do planning, this day is to come sooner or later. Of course there is also a wise man, recently the author of a Web site like this BBS, seen a very interesting:

The "little brother marketing graduate

The following is my career planning, welcome comments:

Within half a year after graduation to become familiar with your industry, the market situation;

1 year later do competent level;

3 years later do city manager level, by the way of marketing division;

5 years later do provincial Manager level;

8 years later do large district manager level;

10 after do national Marketing Director, then his own business

If all goes well

40 years old back in university teaching

50-year-old began writing books

60-year-old out of rivers and lakes, 2/3 of the money used to project hope

……

Destination although some naive and unrealistic, but after all, is his career after thinking about the first step.

Some foreign sales targets set for himself is 30 years old before becoming provincial Manager; 35-year-old former District Manager; 40-year-old former Sales Director, a 45-year-old do General Manager. This is a race of life, you have 30, 35, 40, 45-year-old former beat the competition ran into the required target. 30 years ago did not run into provincial Manager you may 95% out of the picture, because in the next 5 years, you could be the possibility of regional manager is very small. Similarly, if you have a 40-year-old is not promoted to Sales Director's throne in foreign companies large District Sales Manager in this post you may become a man, not to advance is to retreat due to the age of reason be fired to a sharp increase in the probability of it. Really left the company, you really do not know how to make a living, then as sales age. So many big companies have so-called "window for a family of" both "age is over 40, posts or not slip in the autumn, there are old at home with small, only sitting by the window stayed dead. "But if the privilege in the 45-year-old former ran into the General Manager of the class, it's another when don't recognize you are young and senior management.

In short, the goal is only the first step to success, in this age and post race, every section you can pull down, and you must ensure that each time the job ran in front of the age. You do not wish to participate in the game, don't go professional managers in this way, you should also consider the 40-year-old why is after you, keep a glued. Into the business contacts with the company to become a dealer or a road, but you should have done.

To the age of 40 you can live in dignity, in addition to participating in the insurance more saving, recommended listening to teachings of Confucius "my ten to five, Chi-Yu, 30, 40 and 50 and had no doubts that knew her fate, 60, 70 and ear and the heart desires, not more than Ju 's. "Confucius's personal career plan is started from the age of fifteen, the 70-year-old has reached the highest level-one."-"

Career experts believe: "where do you stand today is not important, but you're next step towards where it is very important. "The next step is to your life in order to achieve the objectives of the action plan, of course, also very important.
