  • Write a first message a busy stranger actually replies to
  • Disqualify a bad fit early instead of chasing it for a month
  • Run a discovery call where the other person talks most of the time
  • Answer an objection by understanding it rather than arguing with it
  • Keep a pipeline honest enough that its forecast means something

About 85 minutes in total.

Finish the units and the project and you get the Certificate of Completion. Add a live skill challenge on Inside Sales and it becomes a Verified Certificate, which anyone you send it to can check for themselves.

Questions

What does it cost?

Nothing while insiderOne is in beta.

Can an employer check it?

Yes. Every certificate has its own page, and the code printed on it resolves there without anyone needing an account.

Do I need any experience?

No. These are written for students and people in their first job, and they assume nothing.

What do I actually walk away with?

The certificate, and the piece of work you made for the project, which stays in your insiderOne profile where an employer can see it.
