- You’re reliably hitting (or exceeding) quota while managing the full sales cycle independently, from prospecting to contract negotiation.
- You’ve established credibility with founders and technical leaders, positioning yourself as a trusted advisor rather than just a vendor
- By the end of the year, you have repeatable sales momentum, strong relationships with AWS partners, and a clear footprint in your territory
