1 rating

Learning how to get your first Technology Sales job is hard

Technology Sales can be one of the most rewarding careers - but no school or university teaches you what it involves, or how to find and get hired into a great technology company.

In this 90 minute video course I'll share my 20 years of experience in technology sales - both as an individual contributor and as a hiring manager - and show you my proven method for finding a great company to work for and getting hired.

If you don't get an interview following this method - you'll get a 100% refund

My step by step guide to getting hired

Specifically you will learn

  • Why selling technology is such a good career
  • How sales people make money (and how to super-size your earnings)
  • How to decide what to sell and who to sell it to
  • Why you should target sectors like SaaS and Cloud Platforms
  • How to find a great company to work for
  • How to short cut the recruitment process

  • Students/Graduates planning your first job role
  • Salespeople in non-technology companies such as recruiters and real-estate agents
  • Non-salespeople in technology companies such as customer success or consultants
