Thank you, for writing blogs regarding sales and spirituality. I have been in sales for over ten years, but changed my sales path from media sales in the summer of 08, to information technology sales.
With the changes that the economy has experienced, I have not been able to figure out if I made the right choice. Although the company who I now work for has greater integrity then the media giant who I had previously worked for.
I enjoy sales, but have really struggled over the last year. My manager is very supportive and luckily spritual as well.
I have marked your site as a favorite, so that I may refer to your blogs when I question what it is that I’m doing.
Kindly,
Maura
