Careers In Business

Sales Representative: You Can be Happy in Sales
I have been an independent sales rep for 36 years. Contrary to the stereotype, a sales person needn't be pushy or aggressive. A sales person must enjoy speaking with other people, must not be afraid to meet new people, and must be an exceptionally good listener. He or she must be logical and sympathetic. And especially if one is an independent rep, he/she must be organized and self-motivated. An independent rep does not have a boss telling him (or her) what to do every day.

Consultant: Leaving on which Jet Plane?
There is a lot of travel involved in this position, which can be fun if that fits your personality. Keep in mind though that there is generally more back-office than front page work.

Insurance Agent: I Sell Peace of Mind
Being an insurance agent, while not full of glitz and glamour, is a pretty good way to earn a living. If you’ve a good eye for detail and are a stickler for maintaining policy, then the job should be a breeze for you.

Market Research Analyst: The Sexiest Job the Business World has to Offer
Does doing math excite you? Are you titillated by identifying trends? Do statistics make your crotch tingle? Then get out there and become a market research analyst, the sexiest job that the business world has to offer. Conduct surveys on the internet, by phone or through the mail, or go door to door and give women your poll; then analyze the data and make recommendations to your employer about their product.
