From Side Hustle to Success: Engineer to Sales Leader

Forget the usual career trajectory stories. This is about taking a risk, unleashing your potential, and discovering a whole new side of yourself at Riverside Payments. My journey here has been nothing short of remarkable, and I'm excited to be able to share it with you.

Early Days: Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone

For years, I thrived in the world of engineering. It was my comfort zone, a place where I could leverage my technical skills and solve problems with logic and precision. But after a layoff, I found myself needing a new direction. Sales, especially 1099 sales, felt like a whole new ball game!

Conquering Challenges and Finding My Niche

Honestly, the initial hurdles were real. My biggest challenges were overcoming my nerves and learning how to build a strong sales pipeline. It was a steep learning curve, but Riverside prepared me with the support and training I needed. After a short while, I discovered my sales niche and that’s when things began to take off for me in this new environment.

Why Riverside? The Energy and the Opportunity

What initially drew me to Riverside was the company culture. I saw it in the YouTube videos – a team-focused, energetic atmosphere that felt different from anything I'd experienced before. Beyond the energy, the potential for growth and the talk of earning six figures for the first time in my life – well, that was totally motivating. With a big family to support, I knew I needed an opportunity where my hard work could truly pay off.

Growth and Success: A Journey Beyond My Expectations

Taking a chance on Riverside was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Within months, I was promoted, a true testament to the company's commitment to rewarding hard work. This promotion ignited a fire in me to keep pushing myself and to keep growing within the organization. Looking back now, the most surprising thing has been the extent of my growth. For the first time in my career, the effort I put in was directly rewarded with bonuses and leadership opportunities. The level of support I received from the team – it was truly humbling. Perhaps the most rewarding aspect, for me, has been the ability to bring on friends and family after being promoted. To see them succeed in sales, just like I did, has been incredibly fulfilling. Now that I’m a leader, I never forget the support I received from the beginning.

The Riverside Impact: A Life Transformed

There's no denying it – Riverside Payments has had a massive impact on my life and my family's life. In a short amount of time, I've achieved things I never thought possible. A new house, a new car, dream vacations – these were all within reach thanks to the success I found in myself and at Riverside. Financially, I've been able to pay down debt and build a secure future for my loved ones. It's been an absolute blessing to be part of this company!
