Sales & Business Development for Beginners: Zero to Hero

The real sales funnel, prospecting and qualifying leads, discovery calls, objection handling, and closing - a practical first course for a remote sales or business development role.

Prerequisites
None — this course starts from zero. Comfort talking to new people helps but is not required to start learning.
What You'll Learn
  • Understand what sales and business development actually involve
  • Know the stages of a real sales funnel and pipeline
  • Learn how to prospect and qualify real leads
  • Run a discovery call and handle common objections
  • Understand negotiation and closing basics
  • Know the real tools and career paths in sales

Business Development Executive and Sales Manager are consistently open remote roles across nearly every industry - and unlike most tech career tracks, sales is one of the few fields where a strong track record can matter more than a specific degree.

This course covers the real fundamentals: how a sales pipeline actually works, how to find and qualify real prospects, how to run a discovery call that uncovers a genuine need, and how to handle objections and close a deal without being pushy.
