4 How about selling something for a company that IS doing a good job at providing a service for their customers? |
1.) It makes me mad because people seem so self centered that they don't care to help others around them benefit and prosper from their work. I think my theme of connectedness is possibly my strongest one.
2.) I like my work to be cost effective at the least. I want to add a legitimate benefit to the lives of others, not just go through the motions and get some useless job done. The who would be small to medium sized business owners. I feel like this is where the most passion and heart goes into work. Big business doesn't do much for me I don't think.
My dad is a role model of mine, he's a self employed body shop owner, and he is so detail oriented when he fixes a car all of his clients are proud to go to him.
3.) I think a lot of people would shy away if they heard 'consultant,' because they're not usually seen as extremely effective, in my opinion anyways. I don't know much about the field, that's just the 'vibe' I've gotten.
4.) That's what I'm trying to tie myself to. I'd make an excellent manufacturer's rep because I'd be able to help retailers move more stock of something, in turn raising their profit and mine. I don't know what I'd want to sell or who would be happy to see me walk through the door. I want to be able to make people happy to see me, I want to be looked up to as someone who helps other people before helping himself or while synergistically helping himself.
I've had a difficult time so far tying a position like this down. This board will definitely help me choose or derive a starting point. It's helped so much already.
