Is Sales Management for you?
10 questions to ask yourself Kendra Lee

t’s not uncommon for successful sales professionals to be offered promotions into sales management jobs. And because it’s considered a “promotion,” it’s easy to think the seller should take it. But should she… or he?
I’ve seen a lot of people make this move and many end up regretting it. Just because they’re good at sales doesn’t necessarily mean they’re well suited for management. And for those who are, many find they enjoyed sales more. They may miss the independence, the open-ended earning potential or the customer interaction, to name just a few of the rewards sales people enjoy. I’ve also seen sellers make the move and thrive. So how do you determine if it’s a good move for you? The following is a list of indicators that describe people who excel in sales management. Consider whether they describe you. If so, it might be just the move for you.
