Obviously we're all on here due to our common interest in nice motorised things, but what do you do to earn the money to buy them?

Mine is exceptionally uninteresting, in that I manage reseller channels for software companies, but it does mean I get to visit lots of nice places! smile How about everyone else?

My expertise is more running reseller channels across Europe for Enterprise software companies, and looking at your site I guess you're generally focused on selling direct in the UK? Either way, if you're thinking of trying to sell through channels, I'd be happy to give you some pointers.

Chris may I ask which software house.
It's just my job now is as an evangelist, going out and educating our channel partners (god love em). Makes a change from doing new business wink
I'm actually in the process of moving on, so I'm in the interview process with 4 at the moment! biggrin I'll let you know once I've accepted something. It will be a similar role though - just not as far behind the going rate as my current one! :

Work in the oh so glam world of sprts TV, look after the on screen graphics for Match of the Day and the Champions League matches in this country. Not a bad way to make a living, and I'm now starting to spend more and more time in the office and less time on the road. Been really lucky with where it's taken me.
