When you commence a 100k job search on Google or Yahoo, you'll find a lot of corporate job listings that require an impressive resume and all that jazz. Most people assume that all jobs over 100k require all that. However, you'll also find many companies looking for sales people to push their product to the masses. They're all willing to pay commission, and you can negotiate that percentage with them. If you feel you can work a sales position successfully, and you can really sell their product, then what's stopping you? You're about to make thousands and thousands of dollars in commissions. The more you sell, the more you make, so it's no longer about waiting for that raise or hoping you get the new position. You can simply roll up your sleeves and get to work. The harder you work and the more creative you get in your sales strategies, the more money you'll make. So if you want to retire in style, work hard and you can save up for it yourself. You don't have to rely on the government for your retirement pension.
100k jobs in sales are a great way to work from home with your own work schedule. You call all the shots. Sell as much or as little as you'd like, and use your creative juices to innovate your own new selling tactics. The more you experiment, the more you'll find your own strengths in the market and will thus increase your sales potential.
If you already have experience in sales, or something similar to it, you'll already have a head start in knowing how people respond. Perhaps, you had a retail job when you were a kid and witnessed first hand how people reacted. If you can remember what worked back then, you might want to try it again online, and see if it still works. You could also ask around to see what other people have done to sell successfully. There are many who'll have their success secrets, and if they're currently working at it, they'll be very reluctant to divulge them. If they're related to you or a close friend, they might reconsider so long as you promise not to share their secret with others. They might have other conditions as well, such as being sure that you're in a different market. You can also search online for other sales people to see what they're currently doing. If you're on all the social networking sites and major forums and chat rooms, you might see a salesperson pop on with his or her pitch and see how people respond to it. It might ruffle everyone's feathers as they immediately cry out, ''Spam!'' You might also see them take to it and contact or respond and ask more about the product. See what the salespersons say to follow up, if they say anything at all, and take notes.
If you're making money based on commission, and you start to really sell their product and see your own returns, then you can make your own budget plans to save up for your own retirement. You're in control now, and you're reinventing retirement. No more 401 K plans and pensions. You make your own money and call your own shots. Set up your own portfolio and put away a portion of your daily earnings to start collecting interest. Plus, if you're constantly innovating new ways to sell products, you might be able to sell your sales ideas to people or hire other sales novices to work under while you collect a small percentage of what they make. There are many ways in which you can ease and decrease your working hours each week until you start taking longer weekends and vacations. Eventually, you might not even want to completely retire, or if you do, you'll have a business and portfolio of your own set up. Your money will be working for you, now, so you will continue to collect the earnings you set up for yourself.
What a stress reliever to know that you're in control and won't have to worry if the government can't afford to pay everyone their 401 K pensions. It'd also be nice to leave the corporate world and work for yourself, choosing your own hours and how much you want to make. You can work as much or as little as you want and it can vary from week to week. So if you decide to put in 80 hours a week, you can. If you decide to take the next week off for vacation, you also can! You've got the freedom that's only limited by how much you want and need to earn each month. You have bills to pay and responsibilities you can't walk away from, but you can choose when to pay those bills and fulfill those responsibilities. It's all on your watch now!
