Hey everyone!

As a newly hired SDR I’m curious what other sales professionals received in terms of training.

Did the VP train you personally?

Did you watch some videos and jump right in?

Sat in with new teammates?

Etc.

Thanks!

Really depends on the Org and can very drastically. If there isn’t a formal training program YT and shadowing the most successful members of your greater team are good starts. And VP’s wont be training you to sell. If there’s a sales enablement department they are there to assist. Good luck!! 🍀

Thank you!

It's "Vary" drastically. Also, there's a lot of VP's that train, especially one's that care about the way their products are being sold.

Hey FishBowl Friends, so I’m currently trying to break into tech sales/FinTech and I feel that due to my previous work history, I might not look like the ideal candidate on paper but I’m an extremely fast learner and very coachable.
