It depends on what you're selling, but generally, salespeople get a commission or percentage of the total price of the item they sell - some companies will provide what they call an advance on the commission, which is very similar to a salary per month, but if the salesperson consistently falls short of that amount each month, they usually get fired! Some places also provide a salary which is generally fairly low, like a few dollars above minimum wage, and also a commission for each sale they make.

You need someone to represent you.  The sales manager is representing the seller, and thusly must do anything to get the seller more money.  She may appear to you to be helpful but by definition she represents ONLY the seller.  Get a Realtor.

Your job is to give them what they want and (help) to make them happy...\nI feel that a good sales pitch includes telling your customer what you can do for them and giving them all info neccessary to help them help you to get the job done...\nIt is very important to be accessable and to make sure that your customer is happy...\nIf every customer that you service is happy,\nthen you go smoothly all the way...\nIf you are a sub-contractor, do not rely on one company, unless they pay verrrrry well....\nHave at least three big customers.....

Lead and motivate are good, however, there are other things to keep in mind. Training is one of the most important things you can do, remember sometimes it's better to run short than run stupid. There are several different type of sales strategies you can do depending on your business. If I knew what type I would better be able to help you. I like agreement selling myself. Too hard to explain what that is here. At the end of the day your sales people have to be accountable for selling, or not selling, hold them responsible but keep in mind, there success depends on how well they are trained or trainable.

Your experience will make you a excellent candidate for a marketing position. Marketing is directly related to sales and customer service because marketing is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods, and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational objectives.  As a sales person, you have found out what a customer wants in a product and how much they are willing to pay, and as a customer service person, have learned how to work with customers to create a positive buying experience...or to rectify a bad one.

management plays an important role in producing goods, but plays an even bigger role in producing quality goods. To produce quality it has to come from the top.  The employees have no control over the system and how it works.  Only management can make the neccessary changes to improve quality of the product. a manager that blames his employees for every defect or complaint obviously knows nothing about management. Management must come to the realization they need to guide and teach instead hound and degrade.an employee cannot produce anymore than the machinery will allow.

A sales position that pays commissions and ofers repeat business is the best. This gets even better if there is a customer service department to handle future sales orders from your accounts. Advertising is a good choice. Selling TV or radio ads, or even selling design services or graphics production like posters or tradeshow displays. You keep bringing in new customers and you keep making commissions on every client you brought in. Insurance is also good for residual income.

You might be able to earn a bit with some type of sales job if you can sell well since they're commission based.  Companies typically want either work experience or a good college degree.  So, you might have to take a low-paying job to get some experience and then apply to others after a year or more.
