was so uncertain bout my future..
when my dad asked me bout my plan..
i just say anything also go interview..
thn only decide what i wan..
he just gv an example, asking me whether i wan or not..
i will straight away say dun wan..
my dad really took the time..
to share his working experience with me..
after listening to his advice..
i a bit had a picture wat i wan to do..
i myself know tht..
in marketing line..
the best way and fastest way to really earn money is doing sales..
sales sales sales..
this word..
to many of u, is like a sth low cls work...
where u would hav a picture tht we will need to knock on ppl's door..
begging or asking for sales..
u hav to do all sorts of things just to hit ur target..
a lot hav a shallow minded on marketing industry..
i could not deny
i had this picture in my mind too..
although part of it was very true..
where sales is indeed this way..
but it actually depends on how u thk of it..
some say..
"aih, u r girl la, why study marketing??
need to do sales wan wo, *pao tao lou min*
not gud la! this work is only suitable for guys..
yea, this thinking can say..
a lot of my relatives say this to me before when i 1st studied this course...
but i can say rite now, i dun regret it!
as compared to other courses..
i really do luv my course!
n therefore..
no matter wat obstacles is ahead..
wat ever challenges is waiting for me..
i will be prepared to learn, listen, observe and understand!
as i had choose wat i wanted to be..
shake of my fears...
n let my new journey begins...
*phewwww, thx dad! ur advice made the picture crystal clear to me, thx!

Tat's why ppl always said parents is our living buddha ^^
somehow.. sales is not that bad...
depends on what kind of sales, some like direct sales will hate by most of the ppl lah..haha..
some ppl think sales is low class job, entry level..blablabla..but it has its benefit also.. from sales u learn to negotiate with ppl, learn to see customer behavior, learn to use proper technique for different customer (which can apply marketing strategies..lolx) and most important, when doing sales, u meet alot ppl, exspecialy those big boss, so at the same time u build ur network and maybe 1 day, they invite u to their company, or in future, u might need thier help for ur career...
re winx: haha, yea totally agree!!
re jamie: yes, i get wat u mean, maybe marketer will only entirely und wat really is sales, the rest might only hav a shallow view of doing sales!! thx for the advice !! =)
dun think ur self as sales person, think ur self as consultant for them.. haha.. u are helping them to solve problems... lolx
marketing 和sales 虽然有关联,但是还是不一样的叻。。marketing 还是有自己的工作范围,不抛头露面的也是marketing 啊~~ 只是我觉得这一切都是看那公司怎么把marketing n sales 分辨。
加油咯,只要自己喜欢,管他low class 还是什么的。呵呵
