For candidates

You asked how I did it.

For years the question was the same. How did you get like this. The answer was never a mindset trick. I learned to sell, and getting paid to ask for things fixed the rest.

Most of you did not fail because you lacked skill. You failed because you did not ask.

You did not ask for the number. You did not ask for the raise. You did not ask for the close. Sales is the highest paid way to fix that permanently, because in sales you get paid for asking and you get told no often enough that it stops meaning anything.

That is the whole reason The Ascent trains confidence before it trains a script. A script does not help a man who will not dial.

What it takes

What the six weeks demands.

Time

You show up live, on camera, every week

This is not a course you watch at 2x. You run calls in front of other people and you get corrected in front of other people.

Intensity

You get told no, on purpose, repeatedly

The simulations are built to make you fold. That is the point. We find out where you break in week two instead of your employer finding out in month two.

Standard

You get tested before you move forward

Each week ends in a test. Not everyone graduates. A rep who cannot hold the price does not go on our roster with our guarantee attached.

Who this is not for.

This is not for people looking for a remote job they can coast in.

It is not for you if you want a certificate instead of a test. If you go quiet when someone pushes back. If you need the money this week. If you think the problem is that nobody has given you a chance yet.

We put our name and a 90-day guarantee on every rep who graduates. That means we turn people away. Being clear about that now saves us both six weeks.
