salesnsuccess

It’s been rough. Being an independent contractor on 1099 and making only commission. A slow period resulted in no sales and I have been suffering financially. I am truly looking for advice on my career and looking for long term stable opportunities.

I’m an investor. I look at things via two quantifiables, risk and profit. Being commission based is awesome when the sun is shining, you can usually make some awesome profit, but it needs to be known that is not the norm and it’s a far more risk correlated field. You gotta spend like it’s always overcast, to save for the rainy days. Decide if the sunny day profit is enough to pay for the rainy slow days. Otherwise gtfo and move to a w2 job.
