The numbers
$2.7M
closed in 16 months
Top 12%
of a 40-rep team
Straight commission, self-taught, started with zero sales experience.
I've got a CS degree but I ended up in sales, and turns out I'm good at it. $2.7M closed in the last 16 months, straight commission, top 12% of 40 reps. On the side I build real infrastructure, so when a customer starts talking technical, I actually get it.
That's the whole pitch. I can talk to the engineer and still close the deal.
First job out of school was a backend role fixing small web bugs. Paid fine, but I dreaded going in. So I took a chance at something totally different: selling home improvement, straight commission, no safety net.
Nobody thought it'd work. I studied the sales process day and night, watched everything I could get my hands on, and after a few months I hit my stride and climbed to the top of the board. First time work didn't feel like work.
Now I want to aim that at something bigger. Technical sales, where actually knowing the product is the edge.
I source, close, and deploy wireless hardware at venues around Long Island and NYC. Whole loop: cold outreach, closing the owner, installing it myself, getting the network live.
Got sick of clunky sales tools so I built my own. Contact enrichment, automated email sequences, live integration with the software my customers already run. It's what I actually sell out of.
Real-time system that pulls in blockchain transactions, cleans them up, and flags the ones worth acting on. Building it taught me how brutal raw live data is until someone makes it usable.
Contributed to mobile product at an early-stage infrastructure startup. Helped shape a grant proposal and prototyped the app that scouts new deployment sites.
I'm after a technical sales role where knowing how the product works is an advantage, not an afterthought. If that's who you're looking for, let's talk.
