"While the money is definitely an incentive in the work in sales, it is not the main motivating factor because I initially got into sales not thinking I'd make much money. I started my work in sales because someone told me that if I liked meeting new people, sales was a great opportunity for me. I decided after a few months in the industry that a career that allows me to talk to people as much as I do and help them find the right product and service is the right fit. That's why I've been in the industry as long as I have. I really like being able to help customers. I also really admire the value that your company has in providing accessible health insurance to all people. Sales is definitely a career for me that aligns with my own values and goals."
