Despite what the billboards say, demand for great sellers (especially at hot AI companies in SF!) is at an all-time high. Products are becoming more technical and features are changing faster. Categories are becoming extremely crowded with new entrants pretty much every day, while buyers are harder to reach as they get overwhelmed with outbound slop. The easier it gets to build software, the more valuable it becomes to be great at selling it. For someone who’s early in their career or looking for a change, trying to get exceptionally good at that craft is a pretty interesting bet to make right now. We want to help more people make that move and break into sales even if they don’t have any previous experience, so today we’re launching @firstround Sales Combine. After two days of FREE training in SF, we’ll make direct intros to companies @NotionHQ, @clay, @fal, @togethercompute, @p0, @reductoai and many others. Apply by 10/3: And see a preview of the training sessions here:
