Growing from a Coin-Operated Rep to a Sales Leader
Being called "coin-operated" is common in sales, where closing deals is a primary focus. Despite the negative connotations, excelling at deal-making is exactly what you were hired to do. Leadership isn't just about managing teams; it's about using your influence to improve processes and the work environment. As you demonstrate leadership, you'll likely be given more responsibilities like team management and mentorship. Remember, your growth from a focused deal-closer to a leader shows how you can transform and contribute significantly to your organization.
