Monty Fowler, Vice President, Revenue Strategy and Enablement at Kentik

Monty reveals that at many companies, the most highly paid professionals are often the salespeople, and in some cases, they might make as much as a Fortune 500 CEO. We break down the total compensation and pay structures most common in tech sales roles and a possible blueprint to earn $100,000 or more in an entry-level tech sales role.

Monty also explains the archetypes of sales professionals and why it might not be what you think. We learn about the introverted people who succeed in sales roles and how some sales teams are made up of former engineers. He also shares the necessary skills someone might need to do well and the potential career paths in sales.
