How would you describe people who typically thrive in this industry?
The most successful people are those who follow through on their promises. If they say they're going to do something, they do it, and they are very attentive to their customers.
Anyone successful in sales could be successful in this industry or any other. Sales comes down to being responsive and helping a customer achieve their goals.
Anyone good at those things is organized and could be successful here. You do need to be comfortable speaking in front of a group, but if you're good at sales or communicating, you can do well here.
