What is the best way to change careers without taking a tremendous pay cut?

Posted by admin
No Name asked:


I currently work in the manufacturing industry, but I am a senior working towards my BBA with a minor in marketing.

I have worked in the manufacturing industry for almost 15 years.

How do I change careers without starting over at the bottom?

I would like to move into the sales/marketing industry, but I don’t have any sales/marketing experience.

Thanks

Ryne

    Just because the previous answerer’s hubby isn’t a good salesman that shouldn’t hinder you and your efforts. There are some good companies that pay more (with commissions) than a lot of mfg jobs and come with expense accounts and maybe company cars as well. Just check around and find one you feel good about before leaving your current position,.
