I had previous sales experience going into the program, but I learned a ton of new things related to tech I would never have figured out if it wasn't for Higher Levels.

What had you interested in Tech Sales Ascension?
I had previous sales experience but was looking to make a shift into tech... I tried to go at it by myself but things just weren't clicking and I realized very quickly that tech required a whole different approach from what I had been used to. It was a crazy wake-up call but made me realize that I needed to find a coach who could teach me how to go about this the right way. I stumbled upon all the success stories on YouTube and it just seemed like a natural fit.
What was the most valuable thing you took away from the course?
Everything from identifying the right companies, reaching out to the right people within the organizations, and distinguishing between quality employers was a massive value-add I learned directly from the course. You did a really good job aligning my toolset to tech specifically, and I felt prepared for everything on the other side of it. But perhaps the most significant takeaway was the sense of belonging to a community. Job hunting, particularly for remote positions or a transition to a new industry, can often feel like sending applications into a void. However, being part of the Tech Sales Ascension group changed that dynamic for me. The group environment allowed me to engage with fellow members, learn from their experiences, and seek feedback. Weekly calls with mentors Eric and Kris provided opportunities for group discussions and Q&A sessions, ensured that I always had all my questions answered.
What's your advice to someone considering Tech Sales or Higher Levels?
I was extremely hesitant as I'm naturally a very skeptic person, but if I could go back and do anything differently, it would be investing in training sooner. The reality of things are that it's hard to figure all of this stuff out on your own. Find someone you believe in and learn from them. And once you commit to the process, stay heads down and don't get discouraged when things get hard. Anyone can do this if they put their mind to it.
