Remote Sales

He Hated Recruitment… Now He Closes $9K Deals From an Office Down the Road | Nick Schweizer

Kris Cochrane

Nick Schweizer was a burnt out recruiter in Melbourne… waking up dreading Mondays, feeling trapped, and convinced this was “just life” until retirement.

Then he found remote sales.

In just a few months, Nick went from recruitment burnout to closing high-ticket deals remotely — earning $8.5K in his first 3 weeks, $12.5K in month two, and $15K+ in month three… while working a normal routine and being home for dinner with his family.

In this episode of The Remote Sales Podcast, Nick breaks down the real shift that changed everything:

going from cold outreach + contingency chaos…

to inbound, qualified conversations where prospects want to talk.

Tune in to hear about:

✅ Why recruitment burned him out (and why contingency is brutal)
✅ The moment he realised he couldn’t do it anymore
✅ Why he chose remote sales over e-commerce
✅ What his day-to-day looks like as a remote closer
✅ The offer he sells (industrial property education) + who the buyers are
✅ How he learned to sell to high-performing, “no fluff” prospects
✅ Why your environment (and who you’re around) can make or break you
✅ His next goal: $20K/month + moving decisions (Sunny Coast vs staying in VIC)
