Tech Sales
Technology is a huge industry with high-paying entry level jobs and excellent opportunities for growth. It might be hard to believe that you could land a job in this field without programming skills, but there is a way into this industry, even if you don’t have a technical background. Through Tech Sales, you can get your foot in the door of your dream technology company.
Becoming a Sales Development Representative (SDR) creates an accessible entry point into the field because, unlike other jobs in tech, you don’t need an IT or coding background to get started. Instead, you need strong communication skills and an understanding of empathetic sales techniques.
You can learn about both the tech tools and the business know-how through Springboard's Tech Sales Online Bootcamp. In just three months of live instruction and hands-on assessments, you'll go through the end-to-end process of finding leads, engaging with them, presenting to potential buyers, overcoming objections, and finally how to close the deal.
