Most people don’t take a straight path into sales.
Tyler Meckes definitely didn’t.
In this episode of The Bird’s Nest, Tyler hares how he went from majoring in Exercise Science to building a career in sales — and eventually making the leap into Revenue Operations at Eleven Software.
What changed?
He realized the skills he developed in college weren’t wasted.
They were transferable.
Teaching complex concepts.
Breaking down problems.
Communicating clearly.
Those same abilities helped him win in sales — guiding prospects, diagnosing challenges, and leading conversations with confidence.
And when he transitioned into Revenue Operations, those communication skills became even more valuable. Now he’s working cross-functionally — aligning sales, systems, data, and leadership to drive revenue performance at scale.
This conversation is about career pivots, betting on your strengths, and realizing that no experience is wasted if you’re willing to connect the dots.
If you’re in sales, RevOps, or thinking about your next move — this episode will challenge the way you look at your own path.
