This book covers my 25 years working in sales for a company that manufactured technical training systems, which were marketed to public schools in the USA. It covers the learning curve of a sales trainee, and how to sell products. It continues to follow my career path through various levels of sales management, and all of the issues encountered, while working as an employee, both good and bad, until I was promoted to vice president of the company. You will read about my having to report to a very difficult boss, and how I dealt with it. After 25 years, I resigned, and started my own company. I was successful, and enjoyed going to work every day. Starting a company, and building a business, has a lot of challenges. When I reached the age of 55, my training allowed me to enjoy the most productive years of my career. I hope you enjoy my story.
