Description

Before you say "yes" to that promotion at work, you need to hear this.



You’ve crushed your targets. You’re the superstar. Now, your company wants to "reward" you with a Sales Manager title. I’m telling you: it’s a bait you shouldn't swallow blindly. In this episode, I break down the brutal reality of the "Promotion Trap."



Most top performers move into management only to find their income slashed, their stress tripled, and their freedom gone.



What You Stand to Lose:


 * Your Paycheck: Why moving from commissions to a capped salary might be financial suicide for you.


 * Your Control: You go from being responsible for your own wins to being held hostage by a lazy team.


 * Your Peace: The hidden "lifestyle tax" that causes marital strain when the money stops flowing.



I share real stories from Nigeria to Scotland—including the rep who will lose millions in bonuses just for a fancy title. If you want to keep winning, you must understand the difference between selling and leading.



Level Up Your Game



I am hosting a Live Online Sales Training from January 12th–23rd, 2026. I will teach you how to master the phone, close deals faster, and take advantage of your commissions.
