Upskilling Reps with Non-Traditional Backgrounds

Transform team members with unconventional experience into revenue-generating pros, by equipping them with essential commercial skills.

The Challenge

Hiring sales & CS reps with non-traditional backgrounds (from places like higher ed, military, nonprofits etc) can significantly enrich your team, but without proper commercial training, these team members can struggle to produce commercially. Hope isnโ€™t a strategy – without a clear path for upskilling, youโ€™re gambling on potential instead of ensuring performance.

Non-traditional hires can struggle commercially

Provide foundational and practical skill development thatโ€™s perfect for non-traditional sales and CS hires.
