Yea, because in 2015 i went from making $50K to $65K plus. I probably made $85K that year. Last year I made almost $100K.I could write a book. First thing I did was reach out to all our customers to make sure they know they get a discount if they order this stuff through us. Thousands of customers. Some replied, some didn't. The ones that didn't I called back in a few months. Then a few weeks, until I reached the right person. Then I found out why they weren't buying from us. I overcame those objections and they remembered me the next time they needed something. I sent them a quote. They saw that I wasn't lying. I will save them money. And so they started buying from me. But most of all after calling and calling and calling I found out why our big customers don't buy through us. Because they have buyers. So I connected with their buyers and showed them how I could save them 5% if they ordered through us. Blablabla.When they sent us all home for 2 weeks with 75% pay they said don't do any work. Don't take your computer home. Those 3 days, we sold nothing and lost big sales because I wasn't there. We lost thousands of dollars. So on Wednesday the boss called me and said come get your computer and take it home.I'm working too. Seems most of us essential workers are Democrats.Working
So what do you do that is so essential?
When I first started at this company they sold $50K a month in aftermarket. I sell $150,000 a month in accessories. That's $1 million 800 thousand dollars. We make clear after all costs 20% of that. That's $360,000 profit off what I do every year. Before me they sold $600K a year so they made $120,000 profit off aftermarket. So I make my company an extra $240,000 a year. If I'm not there, they lose $20,000 a month.
You tell me, if this was your business, would I be essential?
Also I'm working from home. Stay safe.
It's not up to your boss as to whether you're essential or not.
And how did you personally turn around sales in such a drastic way?
It took about 2 years for sales to triple but I doubled sales in the first year.
I'm an inside sales God is what my bosses and the outside sales guys tell me. I'm a machine. And I usually get back to people faster than my competitors and I get them their shit faster so not only do I save them money I give them great service. And I sent the tracking as soon as I have it.
I am worth $100K and essential to this business. And seeing as how I can work from home, the government has nothing to say about it. I'm not a preacher asking people to congregate in my home so I can make money. That's against the law. But me working from my sofa? sofaking what? lol
That reads like one of those phony, chest beating, wishful thinking letters to Penthouse Forum.
Without the sex.
Yeah....
He went from making over $75k to six figures in a matter of a few posts.
And if you knew me you'd know I have a $20K side business. In fact while I'm sitting here in my home making 80% of my salary, I also made $50K profit selling pot. So I actually make well over $100K.
$75K for a 1 person home is considered upper class. That's what I was talking about.
I love it that you broke ass right wingers think my life is unbelievable. Thanks. Don't even make me bring up my brother who makes over $500K. He's a VP of HR for a Fortune 500. He told me to let him know if I need help when all this happened. I said, "bro, I have $40K liquid"
The day I was furloughed I was going to put $10K into 10 stocks. I pussied out. I would have made $5K in a week. I'm such a pussy. I have to remember $10K is nothing to upper class people like me. I have to stop thinking like I did pre 2015 raise.
Thanks Obama by the way. The economy was actually doing just fine in 2015. Same growth as 2019. Maybe a difference of .01%
LOL...broke ass right winger?
You must still be very young. I was making what you make now when I was 28.
