I am 20 years old and my business has tanked.

I have $300 left to my name and I need to start cash flowing as fast as humanly possible.

My plan is to get back into sales cash flow 5-10k per month then roll that money into entrepreneurial ventures

I have two years of sales experience -Tech SDR -logistics AE -selling my own offer (small business SAAS)

My question is: What type of sales should I pursue

Tech sales
Commission only High ticket closing for personal brand offers (coaching, courses, etc)

I really dislike the corporate space but I know I could land a pretty high paying tech sales job fast with my resume.

High ticket sales is what I really want to do but the barrier to entry is much greater. It’s all about who you know, networking and would take time that I don’t have

What should I do. By this time next month I NEED to be making 5k minimum per month

As I see it, the most likely way to succeed in your plan of 5k by next month is if you go find Tyrone at the corner, buy a big bag of something for 300$, repack into small bags as sell to retail customers at another corner.

From what I hear, there's sometimes violence if you just decide to compete in this business without getting permission from the right folks...
