After graduating from college, Anna was eager to take the next step in her career. While she appreciated her time in the service industry, she was excited to explore new opportunities that aligned with her strengths and long-term goals. That’s when she discovered Vendition. Through Vendition, Anna was introduced to the world of sales. She researched the field, learned about the skills required, and quickly realized that sales aligned perfectly with her natural talents. She was drawn to the challenge, the problem-solving aspect, and the opportunity to connect with people in meaningful ways. After immersing herself in the training, she knew she had found the right path.
As a professional athlete, Anna needed a company that understood the importance of work-life balance. SimplyAgree stood out because they truly valued her passions outside of work. Unlike rigid corporate environments, SimplyAgree offered a supportive culture that encouraged flexibility in achieving goals. Anna immediately felt at home in a company that not only honored its values but also cared about her as a person. The freedom to approach her sales targets in a way that worked for her, combined with a team that genuinely supported her growth, made SimplyAgree the perfect fit.
Anna quickly noticed striking similarities between her athletic training and sales. As a track and field athlete, she learned to embrace the mantra: “Trust the process.” Training is full of ups and downs—you might not see results immediately, but consistent effort and trust in your coach pay off in the long run. Sales operates the same way. There are off days when you don’t hit quota or book meetings, but persistence and self-reflection help you improve. Athletes are naturally goal-driven and self-motivated, and in sales, hitting milestones—whether it’s booking a meeting or closing a deal—provides the same adrenaline rush as scoring a goal or setting a personal record. This mindset helped Anna transition seamlessly into her sales role, where she applies the same dedication and resilience she honed on the track.
One of the biggest skills Anna has developed since starting her role is confidence. She never imagined herself cold-calling lawyers, leading conversations, and networking with professionals. But stepping out of her comfort zone and refining her verbal skills has transformed her approach to both sales and sports. This newfound confidence has even spilled over into her track career. The way she carries herself, engages with others, and tackles challenges—whether on the phone or on the field—has been elevated. SimplyAgree has not only helped her grow professionally but has also strengthened her belief in her own abilities.
