What made you join Tech Sales Ascension?

What made you join AE Mastery?
What made you join Cold Call Mastery?
For years, I was running two Edible Arrangements locations, wearing every hat from hiring to inventory, but I found my passion when I started focusing on B2B sales—working with schools, doctor’s offices, and local businesses. That’s when I realized I wanted to pursue sales more seriously and transition into tech. I spent a year researching—Reddit threads, YouTube videos, Instagram—but I eventually realized I needed something more efficient than throwing darts at the wall. Higher Levels stood out because of the real testimonials, the transparent pricing, and the overwhelming amount of content I could actually learn from.
What was the most valuable part of the program to you?
The community. Hands down. It was like having a mini subreddit built into the course—you could ask anything and instantly get responses. The resume help also changed everything. Before Higher Levels, I dropped my resume into a sales subreddit and got roasted. After applying what I learned, I landed interviews with multiple companies and secured multiple offers—including from Deel. I also loved the job tracker, outreach templates, and live resume reviews. The fact that other Higher Levels grads had already landed at Deel meant I had people inside the company coaching me through the interview process. That gave me a serious edge.

What advice do you have for someone considering Cold Call Mastery?
Don’t wait to “finish” the course before applying—apply while you learn. The program gives you all the tools, but you still have to take action. Reach out, cold email, follow up, and tailor your message. Practice the cold calls, prep for the interviews, and be okay failing early so you can win when it counts. I wouldn’t have landed Deel if it had been my first interview, but because I took other reps and learned from them, I was ready when it mattered. Higher Levels is basically a room full of successful SDRs and AEs willing to help you skip the guesswork—use it.
