Sales Development

Picture

Picture
​Business technology powers our modern world, and every technology provider needs good recon -- people adept at sorting through, prioritizing and communicating targets of opportunity.  Aptitude is more important than experience, particularly in sales.  If you also have the desire, you're only a few dozen training hours away from a job in which typical first-year pay is $70,000 and above and which opens us a world of opportunity in technology.  

​Sales skills are universally valuable.  Good sales representatives command salaries well into six-figures, make their own schedules, and have the power to work in the industries they choose. 

​This program has a high job placement.  If you have the right aptitude and perseverance, your chances of landing a job as a Sales Development Representative with a good technology company are very good.
