Hello, I currently work as a Sales / Business Dev guy with a lot of experience in closing orders / new market penetration / business dev etc. I’m fairly good at what I do. I’m in the Electrical / Mechanical manufacturing space calling on clients in the O&G, Energy, industrial / Construction space. I make decent money (very competitive within my industry)… but some of the salaries I see here in the tech industry is just nuts (read: awesome!). I have no background in software or tech, but I’m a pretty fast learner. How do I make the transition into sales within the tech sector (Amazon, Google, etc). Has anyone made this transition before? I have 12 yrs of experience..#sales

Happy to chat on how to break in. I’ve done Cloud at AWS and I’m currently in Ads. For reference, I’m at 300k TC with 7 YOE. Nowhere near those engineering offers you see on here
Ideas on how I can get into software sales?
Apply to every BDR position available. It’s a numbers game.
