I am in search of a career, most likely in sales or marketing. I have
a BA in Communication Studies and about 5 years experience in Sales,
working for a small company (under 5 million in revenue.)  I enjoy
where I am currently at, only I feel that I have reached the maximum
potential for $$ earnings.  I am looking for a career that will give
me the ability to grow (maybe a company like Google?.hint).  I am a
great salesman, I am a people person that loves to interact.  I do not
want to sell stocks because I dont want to be stuck on the hours of
the market. My other passion in life is judo. I have won national
championships and international championships. I have traveled around
the world for judo. I have lots of contacts around the country and
around the world. I could give more information about my
qualifications or a link to my personal website if needed, I just
don?t how much info Google Answers will allow.

 What I am looking for is a list of possible employers (5-10) or
contacts (South Bay Area,CA) that would be interested in what i have
to offer.
 

 I do not have a tech background but I am Internet savvy, and I know
how to deal with people...(I can sell anything if someone can give me
a chance to learn the product or service). I am not afraid of hard
work; training for the Olympics has made me understand what hard work
really is.  I do not really like dealing with job websites as they
usually email me with junk positions. I don?t want to sell printing
machines or stationary. I am interested in e-commerce.  I already look
and craigslist, tribe.net, career builder and monster on a regular
basis, so I don?t need links to those sites.  I am looking for some
advice to lead me in the right direction.

You need to refine your question. There are millions of jobs and
knowing what you want in the job is key. Sell a product or service?
Travel? You get the point. I am in the same position. I took a MAPP
Assessment online and now am looking for someone to break it down
based on who I am and my strengths. I am planning on overlaying this,
with help, onto jobs that fit. Watch for my question here and it may
help you. Focus will help you and the Expert find the answer.
