And I would certainly not recommend basing a career decision on a random person being interviewed in the street of Miami by a social media influencer. Remember, this is content created to keep you entertained for a few minutes when you're on the toilet!

That being said, software sales (or IT sales in general) isn't all unicorns and rainbows. Unless your heart is really into it and you really understand what it is you're selling, many don't survive or don't make anywhere near what they were promised.

If you read the fine print, starting off in software sales can mean starting at the bottom banging out 75 cold calls a day. Some survive and move up, many don't.
