FAQ

Questions you’re probably asking.

Everything I get asked most often, grouped by topic. If your question isn’t here, email me directly and I’ll answer it personally.

About the career

What exactly is an SDR or BDR?+

A Sales Development Representative (SDR) or Business Development Representative (BDR) is the front of the sales funnel at a tech company. You research potential customers, reach out (call, email, LinkedIn), have a friendly conversation, and book meetings for senior salespeople called Account Executives. It’s the most common entry point into the tech industry.

I have zero sales experience. Can I really do this?+

Yes. Most of my clients have zero sales experience. Companies hire SDRs for coachability, work ethic, and communication. Not prior sales. I’ll teach you the skills.

How much can I realistically earn in year one?+

Base salaries typically range from A$60k to A$90k. On-target earnings (OTE, base plus commission) usually sit between A$110k and A$130k in your first year at a strong tech company. After 18 to 24 months, most SDRs move into Account Executive roles earning A$180k+.

Is this remote-friendly from my country?+

I work from Bali with clients worldwide. Tech companies in the US, UK, Australia and Europe regularly hire remote and hybrid SDRs.

About working together

How long until I’m hired?+

It varies, usually between 6 and 16 weeks, depending on the market and how much time you can put in. We stay in the active job-search phase until you have a signed offer.

What’s the time commitment per week?+

Around 5 focused hours. One 1:1 call plus action items between calls. Some clients put in more during the active job-search phase.

When does the next cohort start?+

There are no cohorts. Starts are rolling. You begin the week after your discovery call.

What does a typical 1:1 call look like?+

45 to 60 minutes on Zoom, tailored to whatever phase you’re in. Early on it’s CV review, LinkedIn build-out, career clarity. Middle phase: mock interviews, mock cold calls, application reviews. Once you’re hired: call reviews, sequence feedback, tool walkthroughs.

About the investment

Do you offer payment plans?+

Yes. Pay in full (A$3,497) or split into 4 monthly payments of A$949.

What’s the refund policy?+

14-day money-back guarantee from your first call. Email me, get a full refund, no questions.

Can I claim this on tax?+

In Australia, career-related education and 1:1 work that directly relates to your current or intended field of work may be tax deductible as a self-education expense. I’m not an accountant. Please check with yours before relying on it. A number of past clients have claimed it successfully.

Why is this priced higher than a bootcamp or online course?+

Bootcamps are one-to-many. Pre-recorded courses are one-to-nobody. This is genuinely 1:1, with unlimited calls, for as long as it takes. You’re not paying for information. You’re paying for a person in your corner.
