Accelerator programme
From new in sales to consistently credible.
A cohort programme for early-career sellers who want a real method instead of trial and error — fundamentals, live practice, feedback on your own calls and a route into hiring conversations.
- 0–3 years in sales
- 10 weeks, part-time
- Live cohort + call reviews
A quick introduction
A first proper sales education, not a motivational push
The Sales Career Accelerator is a 10-week, part-time cohort for people in their first years of selling. Instead of theory, you learn one repeatable method — how to open, question, position value and close — and then practise it on your own live conversations every week.
Sessions are small, facilitated by working sales practitioners, and built around recordings of your real calls. You leave with a personal playbook, a coach who knows your gaps, and a certification that hiring managers in our network recognise.
- You practise on
- Your own live calls and pipeline, reviewed weekly
- You leave with
- A personal playbook, certification and mentor feedback
- Career route
- Introductions into roles hiring through Simpli5Sales
The problem
Nobody actually taught you how to sell
- You were handed a target, a CRM login and a product deck — and told to figure it out.
- Some months land, others collapse, and you cannot explain the difference.
- Prospecting feels like begging, so you avoid it until the quarter forces you.
- Discovery turns into a demo, and price becomes the only conversation left.
- Feedback in reviews is about the number, never about what you did in the room.
Who it's for
Built for sellers early in the journey
If you are still forming habits, this is the cheapest time to form the right ones.
First sales role
0–3 years in, carrying a number for the first time.
Switching into sales
Moving from support, delivery, marketing or ops into a quota role.
SDR to AE
Ready to own full-cycle deals, not just meetings.
Founders selling early
Founders and consultants who have to sell their own work.
Inconsistent performers
Capable, hard-working, but results swing month to month.
Ambitious learners
You want a mentor and a peer group, not another video library.

- A qualification standard you can defend to your manager
- Objection responses rehearsed before you need them
- Deals that close on value instead of a discount
