Growth Era Launches Online Sales Academy to Empower Next Generation of Sales Professionals
Growth Era, a sales enablement company, today announced the launch of its online Sales Academy, an online training program for individuals seeking careers in outbound sales. The program is based on Growth Era’s internal training program for Sales Development Representatives (SDRs).
“Outbound lead generation is one of our core services at Growth Era, so, we have always invested heavily in our training program to develop top performing Sales Development Reps. We also see a large training gap in the marketplace, wherein the majority of SDR candidates lack the training foundation to ramp up fast and excel. The online Sales Academy leverages our experience and capabilities to fill this gap and bring the marketplace performance-ready SDR talent.”
The Growth Era Sales Academy provides training in areas such as lead generation, lead nurturing, objection handling, and sales communication. Participants will receive instruction and have the opportunity to practice using sales tools, including HubSpot, Apollo.io, Hyperbound, Hey Reach and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. The program includes exercises and generative AI roleplays.
“We've seen firsthand how this program transforms individuals with no prior sales experience into high-performing SDRs. The Academy provides a structured path to a rewarding career in sales, combining expert instruction with real-world application and continuous refinement.”
The program is designed for individuals seeking entry into sales, aspiring SDRs, and companies investing in sales team training. Participants can earn a Growth Era Sales Academy Certification upon completion.
Members gain access to an in-depth training program, real-time mentorship, and a supportive community of industry peers. With an emphasis on “learning by doing,” the online Sales Academy includes step-by-step action plans and practical exercises for every module.
The program features a comprehensive curriculum that covers:
- Foundations of Tech Sales: Begin with a detailed introduction that clarifies the role of a Sales Development Representative, differentiates between outbound and inbound strategies, and outlines various career paths in tech sales.
- Hands-On Tools & Technologies: Gain practical experience with industry-standard tools, from CRM systems like HubSpot to cutting-edge sales intelligence platforms and AI-powered outreach tools.
