Quitting a job in sales is not as easy as you think it is. You may think that walking away from an employer is cut and dry, it isn't. You have more on the line than you think.
Salespeople will say how they want to leave but they don't. There is a back and forth if you are doing the right thing. The sleepless nights, the concerns about family are difficult to deal with.
You will face rejection because you put in time, effort, and energy into your job. There is the feeling of loss and what could have been. There are all of the hopes and dreams of what could have been. You may have left another job to be at the one you work for now. You may even have picked the wrong place to work. Walking away from a sales job can be excruciating.
Emotional issues are a common problem on the way up to leaving a job. Stress, frustration, anger, loneliness, and even regret.
You may face a guilt trip from the manager, owner, and or owners of the company you work with. Know that your leaving is up to you and what you want.
Know what you want when you leave. There may be a possibility where they will try and keep you. It helps to have a list of things you want. If they press hard you can ask for too much. Know what you really want to stay vs you leaving.
Most people never talk about how to quit a job let alone a job you have in sales.
