What made you join SDR Accelerator?
I was doing well as an SDR, but I was struggling to put together the pieces to promote into Account Executive. I knew I needed external help, because I was quite frankly getting tired and frustrated of trying the same things over and over without seeing results. Luckily, I stumbled upon Higher Levels by accident one day when I was browsing YouTube and I decided to pull the trigger when I saw how high-quality the free content was.
What were the key takeaways from the course?
While obvious now, I had to learn how to act and think like an AE before I even had the job. The course helped me understand that lens thoroughly and really helped me position myself to be a strong candidate for both internal and external promotion. On top of that, I think giving me a stronger fundamental skillset when it comes to prospecting and filling up a pipeline really helped me stand apart as well since many of the AEs weren't doing much prospecting as it was standing then.
What advice do you have for SDRs who want to move up to AE?
Make sure you're hitting a baseline before you start thinking about AE. Don't just jump into AE just because you're at the 12-month mark. Really understand the role, what you're getting into, and have your foundations in order so you can leverage that skillset to set yourself apart from others who have closing experience. And make sure you find insightful mentorship. It's going to take you years without having someone to guide you through the puzzle.
