Entrepreneur | Keynote Speaker | Corporate Trainer | Consultant | Co-Owner of Brema Solutions with Pema Sherpa
You can't start at the top. In fact, I'd argue that it's better if you don't. In the summer of 2011, I worked as a sales & marketing intern (aka Giant Tennis Ball) at the Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, RI. Aside from learning how to walk around in clown shoes and deflate my own costume at the end of the day, I learned many valuable sales lessons I still cherrish today. That summer, when I was a giant tennis ball I learned how to... ✅ Develop and test a sales pitch ✅ Sell to strangers ✅ Overcome rejection ✅ Take myself less seriously ✅ Get up each day and try again In your career, you may find yourself in odd jobs. But don't throw in the towel or coast along. Instead, look for how you can use the time to grow. You never know where the skills you learn as a giant tennis ball (or in another odd job) can take you! 🎾🎾🎾

One of the most common hiring issues I run into is recruiting against the "Big Four" sports leagues for entry-level talent. While the NFL, MLB, NHL, and NBA carry prestige, starting at the minor/developmental league level offers valuable advantages: 1. **Sports Experience:** Breaking into the sports industry is challenging. Starting at the minor league level provides crucial entry-level experience vital for career growth. 2. **Learning Opportunities:** Working in minor leagues exposes you to diverse projects, offering insights into various aspects of a sports team beyond specialized roles found in the Big Four. 3. **Proximity to Executives:** Smaller organizations facilitate direct interaction with high-level executives, unlike the typical barrier in Big Four franchises. Collaboration towards common goals fosters a more inclusive environment. 4. **Potential Career Growth:** Beginning as an Inside Sales Representative with the Gulls, I've advanced to a Ticket Sales Manager role, showcasing how starting at a smaller league can lead to fulfilling career progression.

Account Executive (Inside Sales) King City Rustler / Salinas Valley Tribune newspapers; Creator of @SJSharksHistory on Instagram/X and @NXTUK_Legacy on X; Former contributing writer for WrestlingINC.
#ProWrestling promos and resumes have more in common than you might think. Just like a resume pitches your skills to potential employers, a wrestling promo sells a wrestler to the audience and hypes up their next big match. This got me thinking: if I had to cut a pro wrestling promo about my #jobsearch experience, what would I say? Read below to find out 👇 "Everybody says to tell employers what makes you stand out. For me, it’s simple – I’m not supposed to be here. What do I mean by that? Everything should be sunshine and rainbows, right? I’ve sold close to $300K in advertising the past 13 months as the sole sales rep for a weekly newspaper serving eight agriculture towns. But the road I traveled to get here shows I was never meant to be the one. I had a general manager who tried her best to make me quit in the first six months with her passive-aggressive comments. A company owner took away all my clients and gave them to my colleague as a “lesson” for daring to question something. I was condescendingly talked down to by an analytics consultant who doubted my ability to be a successful sales rep. Fast forward to today – that general manager is long gone, the company owner sold out years ago, and I’ve proven that analytics consultant wrong by racking up near $300K in advertising sales (including $170K in 2024 alone) after my colleague retired last July. Despite my success and handling multiple responsibilities – from invoicing to deliveries, customer service, police logs, and obituaries – I still can’t land an opportunity in the job market. Companies ghost me or say, “We’re impressed, but you’re not what we’re looking for.” Here’s what that tells me: 1. They hitched their wagon to the wrong horse. I see the same job I got rejected for being reposted days or weeks later. 2. They’re so focused on finding the “ideal candidate” that they overlook the candidate who will become ideal. 3. They’re scared. They know that someone like me, who can do the work of multiple people, could make some of them obsolete. I’ve spent the past decade proving doubters wrong and rising to new challenges, and I’m ready to keep doing just that. If you’re looking for someone who is not only capable but exceptional, you know where to find me. I may not be the one you initially wanted, but you know, just as I do, that I will be the one you need!” #OpentoWork #JobHunt #WWE #WrestlingPromo #OrangeCounty

Despite James Kennedy saying we should enjoy the Olympics for what it is and not compare it to SaaS sales - I'm going to do the complete opposite. What event your job would fall into? 🏃🏼♂️🏃🏼♀️Enterprise Account Executive: 100m Sprint. The bright lights of the Olympics, comparable to closing a deal. Lot of hard work in the background to get there though. 🐢Customer Success Manager: Marathon. Ensuring customers don't churn, building long-term relationships can't be done overnight. 🤸🏼Sales Development Representative: Gymnastics. Precision in who you're reaching out to, flexibility to overcome obstacles, and needing to land the sales pitch. I can sense James' glare before posting this. Sorry James. HOWEVER! How would you frame other roles/sports together?

Head of Talent Acquisition @ The Harnham Group | London, New York, San Francisco, Phoenix & Amsterdam
"Played sports? You'll be a natural in sales!" 🤔 For so many years, this prevalent view existed within the recruitment industry. Especially in the graduate space, the amount of times I've been presented with 'sporty' candidates as a big selling point is very high! And like all the things I've touched on these past few weeks, whilst some may find synergy between sports and sales, it's crucial to recognize correlation doesn't equal causation. Success in sales is as diverse as the individuals pursuing it. For every sports enthusiast turned sales guru, there's a passionate non-athlete excelling just as much. 🌟 Your process should be a deep dive, not a surface-level sprint. Let your TA and hiring managers uncover the true competencies, and don't let old-school stereotypes dictate what "good" really looks like! #hiring #recruitment #sales

A: 1) Consistent positive attitude 2) Coachable/Desire to learn 3) Relentless work ethic 4) Personal accountability 5) Passion for revenue generation Q: You've had quality conversations with a hiring manager; how often should you stay in touch? A: If you're graduating in May 2024, monthly. If you're graduating in December 2024 or May 2025, quarterly. Email should include RELEVANT updates and what you learned. (Built out a partnership proposal for class, made 400+ cold calls for minor league baseball team in my city, etc.) Q: How long should your resume be? A: 1 page maximum. Hit me with your best applicable skills and experiences at the top. Again, what did I miss? Happy to answer any additional questions. #Hiring #Recruiting #SportsSales

In the fast-paced world of sales, the desire of new opportunities is constantly posted all over LinkedIn. Yet, true success requires more than hopping from role to role every six or twelve months. Healthy advice from my previous Recruitment experience of placing candidates - Thoroughly choose because the Grass is not always greener as they might say, strategic job searching will allow for longer-lasting and more fulfilling experiences. Consider this: How can you present your successful sales track record of attainment if you haven't completed a full Y1 in a company? Success in sales demands a balance between new challenges and dedicating time to mastering your craft. It's not just about the chase - it's about the journey🌟 Happy to approach my 2 year anniversary with Pleo next month it's been the best 2 years ever on this Rocketship❤️🚀 #SalesMastery #CareerReflections #JobHoppingNoMore
