Curriculum

1. Generating demand

Learn how to segment your market, target the right companies, and build outbound systems that generate qualified meetings even if you're starting from zero.

2. Running sales calls

Stop winging it. Master how to run calls that build trust, surface pain, and create urgency. Learn how you as a founder should be running calls and how these techniques are different from a traditional sales rep.

3. Closing deals

Learn how to uncover decision criteria, move for the close, and handle objections to acquire your first paying customers.

4. Pricing, packaging, and positioning

Walk away knowing how to create initial pricing and packaging for your product, and how to pitch your value even before your product is fully built.

5. Making your first sales hires

Learn how to know when you're ready to make your first hire, how to scope the role, create a compensation structure, interview and onboard your first reps.

6. Leading a small sales team

Understand how to manage reps, run pipeline reviews for a startup, and build light but effective sales ops as you grow past founder-led sales.

What Founders Are Saying

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this course for?

Early-stage (pre-seed through Series A) B2B SaaS and AI founders with ACV > $15,000. The frameworks are less relevant for marketing driven GTM motions with ACV < $5,000.

What if I don't have a product in market yet?

No problem. It's best to sell and talk to customers before you have a fully built out product so you get live feedback and don't build the wrong product. Understanding sales fundamentals at this stage will help you ensure your product roadmap delivers real business value to your customers.

Is the on-demand version just recordings of the live course?

No. It's recorded specifically for self-paced learners and structured differently to match how most people consume bite-sized educational content.

How is this different from other sales courses or YouTube content?

Most sales content is (1) made for full-time reps at established companies that have had product-market fit for years, and (2) fluffed with theory without actionable takeaways that you can apply today. This is built specifically for startup founders, and you'll walk away from every lesson with something you can apply right away

Will I leave with actual assets or just theory?

You’ll walk away with messaging templates, targeting frameworks, playbooks, and a real outreach system. Everything is designed to be applied, not just understood.

Do you offer refunds?

We’re confident in the value of our courses. They’re built specifically for startup founders and tested in the field.

For live courses, if you attend the first session and feel it’s not a fit, let us know within 48 hours and we’ll refund you, no questions asked.

For the on-demand course, all sales are final, but you can preview two full modules for free before buying to make sure it’s right for you.
