Not a car sales but after reading your comment about your significant other commenting on mood upon coming home I have been in a similar situation.
Been a sales for 8 years now and been working in luxury sales for 5~ years now. Conversion rate for any product over 4 figures will be very low as the commitment level will be high with competition all over the city as well. Not only do you have to deal with customers but you may also find yourself competing with coworkers for walk ins and management with sales targets.
CX jobs are one of the most mentally exhausting jobs as you have to be on your best behavior. You have to be able to be compassionate, calm and have a lot of patience and that doesn't come overnight; you don't just sell the product you will have to sell yourself too. Having pressure from your family and sales pressure on top of that wont be easy. Not being able to understand how to deal with that pressure and stress may cause more problems for you after work with the family.
Not against you switching jobs to a sales role but just wanted to give you a heads up on the mentally tolling aspects of being a sales.
With all that being said, its a long road to success as strategies come with experience and time. I love being a sales as its a different scenario every time and the reward gives a high that's unmatched.
