There’s a new way to deliver sales growth…
Don’t buy Sales Training until you’ve watched this video…
In 2011 we took our first venture into SaaS sales training when we partnered with Microsoft to set up and run the Microsoft Sales Academy. They were launching a new product called Office 365 and we were lucky enough to be chosen to work with them.
Since then, the majority of our SaaS sales training clients didn’t quite have the same budgets or brand awareness as Microsoft, and we’ve had to learn the hard way, proving product/market fit, systemising sales and scaling up with start-ups, SMEs and SMBs.
Regardless of what stage you are at, this course will help your team with both strategy, and the hands on, practical skills required for selling SaaS.

Our SaaS sales training course is a 1 day workshop where we work with you to transform your sales and lead generation results.
We guarantee there is no other programme comparable to this in terms of the content and depth. We will demonstrate and coach you through the process of finding, closing and growing customer accounts.
Choose your course agenda based on the main SaaS sales roles, namely SDRs and Account Executives to ensure the relevance of the course content.
This course is ideal for any customer facing SaaS salespeople and line managers of salespeople who need a solid grounding in selling SaaS solutions. Previous attendees have included:
Traditional SaaS sales training is designed around calls, scripts and cold email programmes. Whilst each of these are important, they are tactical and not strategic.
Studies show that traditional sales training delivered over 1 or 2 days leaves everybody feeling great, but they forget up to 90% within 30 days. This means you have wasted up to 90% of your budget and sales are still stalled.
We don’t deliver training, we deliver results designed to grow MRR and scale your sales.
Our SaaS sales course has 2 different agendas based on the most common roles within SaaS, namely SDRs and Account Executives. The SDR course is more focussed on finding new leads, and the Account Executives training is more focussed on closing and grow customer accounts.

People learn by doing not sitting in class rooms discussing sales theories. Furthermore, without an opportunity to practice a new skill salespeople will lose the skill within 30 days. We use a training methodology called “work based learning” which helps salespeople learn while they are working. We do this by creating sales campaigns and working with your team to implement them. We typically achieve:

The Microsoft Sales Academy changed my entire outlook on selling. Since attending Iain’s class I’m selling more effectively and generating great new business. The approach requires constant reinforcement and Iain is always extremely helpful in offering guidance and ensures we understand the material. Iain is a fantastic trainer and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Klozers have been helping to train members of my team who are both relatively new to sales and they have found this very useful and have come away from the training sessions inspired and much better informed/equipped. In addition, they have been extremely helpful in assisting me with the overall strategy for a certain part of the business often providing new thoughts they may have had. I can honestly say, attention to detail and vigour Iain provides goes way beyond the call of duty and I cannot recommend him and his company enough.
