Flockjay

Flockjay exceeded my expectations by 110%. From the Curriculum to the job placement assistance at the end Flockjay put its all in to us as students. The trainers are not just "Flockjay" employees, most if not all of them have years of real world experience as, SDRs, BDRs, Account Executives, Sales managers and more. They do a great job of teaching you from zero tech sales knowledge to 100% ready for a career in tech sales. I will say its not easy as in you will need to put in a lot time and energy into the course but the more you get the more you will get out just like in tech sales!

After having gone through Flockjay I can't imagine a better path into tech sales. When I was researching different avenues into tech sales I was skeptical about Flockjay and this review is the resource I wish I would have had before applying and starting the program. My concerns before starting Flockjay:

1. Having some sales experience, what was I really going to get out of this? Flockjay really formalized my sales training and I realized I was doing many of the things they talk about but having a clear explanation of why and how allowed me to take my sales skills further and develop more in-depth knowledge on sales strategy. 

2. Credibility of the trainers? The trainers are all accomplished tech sales professionals and there is much to take away from their knowledge base. They are also committed to your success which brings me to my next point.

3. Are they committed to your success? The folks at Flockjay are all committed to your success. There is not a single person who is affiliated with them who is not committed to seeing you succeed. This is probably the number one reason why they are so great! If you need help or you need support they are there for you whenever you need it. There really isn't enough that can be said about their commitment to you. 

4. What sort of network do they provide? The Flockjay network is fantastic as is and is only growing exponentially. Flockjay gives you access to amazing folks in the industry who want to help you and who you can network with. This is an invaluable resource that should be taken advantage of!

Things to keep in mind:
1. You can take as much or as little as you want from the program. If you show up and do the bare minimum it's probably not that great, but if you are committed to taking advantage of the opportunity there is so much to take away from it!

2. Network! Talk to your peers, talk to your trainers, and talk to everyone you meet through Flockjay. Take advantage of the network as it's truly invaluable.

In my opinion, Flockjay is the best way to get into tech sales and land an SDR job at a great company.

Flockjay was/is an amazing program. Hard to list any negatives. Really provides a platform for people of diverse and non-traditional backgrounds to break into tech. The program classes and homework assignments are very well thought out. I found the career service managers and resume help team to be great as well.  I feel that I'm very well prepared to enter the SaaS sales world as an SDR and grow from there. The fireside chat were great as well, and excellent networking opportunities. 
I'd recommend Flockjay to anyone!

I knew it was time to shift careers, I knew I could succeed in sales, and I knew the tech industry is where I wanted to be. But other than that, I felt entirely lost! I had no idea where to start, what to learn, who to contact, or even how to write a proper resume. Enter: Flockjay.

This program/boot camp legitimately changed my life for the better. I feel more confident and prepared for this new journey than I've ever felt about anything else I've done in life. I've learned how to translate all of my soft skills from previous careers into specific, valuable abilities to bring to any sales team. We also got to learn how to use sales tools like Salesforce and Salesloft, and we even mastered the art of interviewing so we're actually prepared to get a job now that we're finished. (In fact, I was in contact with some of their hiring partners before I even graduated!) 

Taking the leap and enrolling in Flockjay is one of the best decisions I've made for my career and my future, and I would absolutely recommend anyone who's considering it to do the same. 

Flockjay is an amazing 10-week Bootcamp for tech sales.  In 10 weeks they go over: solution selling, inbound/outbound/discovery calls, email cadences, sales platforms, and technology tools.

But the real value is here: Get Industry Pro's to help you write your resume.  Get coaching from some killer sales pro's and Flockjay opens the door for hiring partners!  At the end of the program, you start interviewing for your new career.

If you are motivated, coachable, are comfortable learning new technology, have ~20 hours a week, and are interested in starting a new career in tech sales: I would highly recommend this program.
