Shift to Product Manager

Guys wanted to get your thoughts… I have 7 years of sales experience working with B2B SaaS companies and I want to get out of this role because of the pressure that it comes with … Revenue pressure, quarterly targets etc… I don’t have a tech background and don’t enjoy coding etc but I like understanding how tech works and read and explore new technologies.

Product Management looked like a great shift were my experience as a sales guy would also be considered… wanted to get the larger picture from you guys if you think I should checkout any other roles and what is the best way to change your role… TIA

Product Managers also have revenue / P&L responsibilities.

Is selling a tedium or is the org you work for a problem?

I have moved a lot from one org to another.. I just feel sales is not for me… because there isn’t any handbook to excel here it just happens when it does… i have been a top performer crushing targets so I have been able to sell but I just feel I have not acquired any skill… anybody with 2-3 yrs of experience can do the same what a guy with 7-8 yrs lf experience can…

I think you should continue with sales. It’s been long that you stayed in the respective career. Let it be. Accept it and live with it.

Hey thanks! But don’t want to live with something and do something for the sake of it 😐
