That quote: "you control your destiny with performance." No regrets.

I'm interviewing for a tech sales role tomorrow, your channel has been a huge help. I can't wait to hit the phones lol.

Three Key Takeaways: This was an immensely informative video. Great to see the career path broken down in so much detail. I'll list a few of my favorite quotes, 1) In the long-term, following the leadership path is going to prove more lucrative. However, it's best to become a great AE and Enterprise AE, and THEN promote into a Leadership role. The best leaders are the people who were terribly successful in their position and then later become a mentor, 2) Focus on where you are, and in doing well in your role, before you worry about where you want to promote to. "Do a great job in the role right in front of you and develop a track record.", 3) "If you hit your number, you control your career path as an individual contributor." Hit your quarterly quotas, hit your annual target, be consistent with both and you'll be creating a good track record with the eligibility to promote and go to President's Club. Miss your deadlines and quotas, and you risk losing your job

Just added you on LinkedIn. Great Content as always! Im starting soon as well in SAAS Sales and im so excited!

Fantastic video Trent!

Lolol not me getting some extra research done ,in between my course careers studying and this This the first vid I see 👏🏽👏🏽

Glad you’re back on the tech sales grind - these videos motivate me!

Excellent video. I too share the same goal as you of pursuing sales mastery and doing bigger/more complex deals. Although I am not much interested in tech atm, I will apply a ton of the info and techniques you all put out. Thank you!

Great informative video. As a video professional, let me recommend sound-proofing materials. Foam squares on the walls, maybe a few partitions on casters if your room is big. It sounds big. It's pretty cacophonous. Easy problem to solve though.

Your tenacity is contagious, my brother✊🏽✊🏽 I’m a year and a half in and still grinding (even after a layoff earlier this year). Thanks for spreading hope in Sales🙏🏽

LFG, got first offer for an SDR at a solid Series B. Numbers are low (feeling) but I know this will become a great move with the right focus. AE track

Hey trent, great video. I would like to point out there is another route that no one talks about and honestly i think is better. That is starting at a reseller (cdw,shi, insight) most of these companies hire right out of college for smb Ae! They have about 2 months if training. From there you sell networking solutions, end user workspace, cloud, cyber security. So whatever (vendor) you move to next you likely will have sold them and their competitors, you also get a good understanding of how the channel works. This is the route i went. I think just going sdr route limits you to only learning about that company

Hello, Mister Trent. I am new to tech sales, after I met an SDR manager who gave me his contact and asked me to contact him for an interview after i learn more about what Tech sales is. And your videos have been so far helpful. Thank you

Hey Trent, I also just recently started an AE position at a SaaS company. I'd love to see a video on how you develop a prospecting plan as a new AE and how you plan on breaking into your territory!

Congrats dude! You ever read fanatical prospecting? Basically what I base my sales mindset on

Hey Trent! I recently found your channel and I have been binging your vids since. Super good stuff! Quick question; In your cold call videos do you have to ask if you can record the conversation? Curious because I'm planning on posting a cold call vid myself and I don't want to get in a mess or anything 😅.

Hey Trent Great video! I’m glad I discovered your channel! Question, as a person trying to break into a SDR role for the first time, (coding background) what would be the top companies that you would recommend trying for? I saw your video on top companies but I was wondering if you could make some recommendations for beginners

I absolutely love your content! Could you please provide an example of a typical workday for an Account Executive (AE) who handles both deal closures and SDR tasks? Also, could you clarify how the SDR functions performed by an AE differ from those performed by an SDR? Thank you!

Yeah agreed, the Enterprise AE role will be lucrative short, mid, to even long term...I know an enterprise rep at my company selling to banks/financial institutions in NYC making north of 6+ million a year...and he's like 71 LOL

It is crazy how a lot of entry level SDR jobs do not even want to offer a more than a 40k base salary =/ Excited to break into tech but its really all determined by your performance. "You control your destiny."

Great video, Trent. I was wondering if I can get a remote SDR job from Pakistan? I've worked for some U.S clients as an appointment setters. Want to have a fulltime tech job in the U.S. Although, I am moving to Canada by the end of 2024.

Trent, what would you charge for exclusuve (5-7 person) bimonthly Zoom goal setting meetings? Where you can direct a select few trying to break into the tech sales industry as an SDR. I am interested and would pay to follow in the footsteps of hungry like minded individuals.

Trent, is there a list of softwares that recruiters look for on resumes? Should sdr applicants have used Semrush, Hubspot etc. ?

Hi Trent, I've been a SDR for 2 years with golden handcuffs of decent pay, fully remote, and no micro-managing. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same thing about the AE roles in my company. What should I do?

Oh, is there any specific reason? My "cold calls" aren't sales calls. Im calling people to attempt to validate an idea for a start-up. Would this be reasonable to post? Thank you for your help!

Hey trent, one question i got in a call i booked from your cold call strategy, for some reason they they kept pushing me a for a price, and i felt they were too young of business to work with us anyways, we work with dog grooming clinics and they have to make 10-15 k in order for it to work. Do you think asking this question or asking how much monthly revenue they are generating is a valid question?

Am I screwed trying to get into Saas as a entry/BDR/SDR role? 5 years in sales, 28 years old but no experience in tech/software. Should I look into perhaps commission only Saas?

Trent thank you. Do you offer mentorship?

Whats a sales engineer do then? Is that just a sme ?

Where to find an opportunity as a tech salesperson?
