Default Anybody Hiring?

Well I just got let go from my sales job with my father's company cause of lack of leads and a diminishing residential market and was wondering if anyone could help me out as where I should go from here.

I have almost three years sales experience and had nothing below a 60% sales rate, but as I know right now all markets are suffering. Dealing directly with customers on contracts and negotiating prices and being successful in making every customer happy and satisfied with their product.

I am still in school and am finishing up with my degree in a BA in Business and Finance in two more years. Living out on my own and paying my way I need as much help and recommendation as to where I could go from here.

Thanks for any and all help.

-Russ

ADT has a new security system they are going to start selling, see if you have a dealer for those near you. In Tampa they were trying to hire up to 20 people, just due to its new product. I didn't take the job cause I'm not much of a salesman, nor was I going to drive a hour both ways to work.
