    Yup it happened. I went 3 weeks without getting a sale. They didn't give me a chance for the 4 th week. I had some deals pending for next week but oh well. Time to drink.

    Sales quota type jobs suck mainly because of situations like this, keep your head up something better will pop up.

    Who gave you the leads? Did you attain them yourself or were they given to you by your company.

    I fired a newly hired sales guy after he went 3 weeks with NO sales. We had a convention and he had over 50+ leads to play with and he didn't produce.

    Two weeks later (after he was fired) two of his clients called in went with the deals lol - I guess that paid for his 3 weeks worth of salary.

    What is the name of your former company and what kind of sales do you have to push? Did you learn how the company work? Maybe you can start your own business. Keep in touch with all the client you have deal with under your old company and undercut them. Sucks working for somebody else. That is why I have my own company and look at me? You can see me post on here everyday during the work week. True cool story bro. What I'm telling you is how I got started.

    Don't give up on sales if you think you can be good at it. I blanked in a couple of jobs, but found my niche. Keep it up. Or not.

    Good luck.

    I hope you grabbed 2 beers from the common area, screamed "**** This!", and escaped through the emergency exit.
