Welcome to the very first episode of Your Big Sister in Sales! I’m Anna Merrill Glassman. I'm here to share the career advice I wish someone had told me sooner. 

In this episode, I walk you through the exact blueprint I used to land my dream tech sales job at @UserGems including how I doubled my salary and walked away from a role that was no longer serving me.

Whether you're six months out or ready to quit tomorrow, this episode gives you a step-by-step strategy to land your next role intentionally with better pay, leadership, and company culture.

7. The importance of finding a mentor who’s been where you want to go
