Online sales executive

It’s no surprise that salespeople are often polarizing. But despite their aggressive and forceful nature, salespeople (also known as sales executives or representatives) are some of the most successful professionals around, earning up to $300,000 per year in the United States. The salary may even be higher for some companies that offer higher salary and commission packages for their employees.

An online sales executive is not different from a traditional sales executive. Compared to traditional sales executives, online salespeople do their pitches remotely whether it is through phone or video conferencing platforms. Most deals are also accomplished remotely, which results in limited to even zero face-to-face meetings with customers.

Similar to customer service representatives, sales executives rely on communication skills to get the job done. Confidence, persuasion, and empathy are also skills that one should have to be successful in sales work.
