INTRO
If you have found Higher Levels, you are probably asking the same question we hear every day: “Which Higher Levels course is best for me?”
The answer depends on where you are in your career. You might be breaking into tech sales, already an SDR, an AE looking to crush quota, or a founder trying to scale. This guide will break down every program clearly so you can make the right choice and move forward with confidence.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
- Which Higher Levels course fits your exact stage in tech sales
- What each program covers and how it is different from the others
- Real outcomes students have achieved in each program
- How to choose between career accelerators and skill-specific training
CONTEXT: WHY THIS MATTERS
Choosing the wrong training program can cost you months of progress. Most “tech sales bootcamps” either charge outrageous fees ($10K to $20K) or hand you outdated theory with no real coaching. Higher Levels was built to fix that. Every program combines self-paced material, proven frameworks, and live coaching from reps who have actually done the job at top companies.

QUICK COMPARISON: WHICH HIGHER LEVELS COURSE IS BEST FOR YOU?

TECH SALES ASCENSION: Break Into Tech Sales
Tech Sales Ascension is the program that started it all. If you are trying to land your first job in tech sales, this is the one you should be looking at. The entire program is designed to get you from “I want to break into tech sales” to “I have an offer letter in hand.”
Who it’s for:
- People with zero sales experience who want to start as an SDR (Sales Development Representative)
- Career changers coming from fields like finance, accounting, construction, hospitality, or any non-sales path
- Professionals with adjacent sales experience who want to pivot into tech sales or even land an entry-level AE role
What you get:
- 15+ hours of curriculum focused on resumes, LinkedIn, and interviews
- Weekly live coaching calls with recruiters and sales leaders who help you refine answers in real time
- AI roleplay simulators to practice interviews and objection handling
- Organization tools to track applications, interviews, and recruiter communication
- Access to a community of Higher Levels students who are now at Amazon, Oracle, Salesforce, Google, Snowflake, and more
Why it works:
Most programs stop at theory, or they charge $10K+ for pure coaching. Tech Sales Ascension gives you the frameworks, tools, and direct feedback to make sure you are ready when you walk into an interview. Students from every background—college grads, parents making midlife career changes, people without degrees—have used this exact program to land jobs at top tech companies.
SDR TO AE ACCELERATOR: Become a Top SDR and Get Promoted
Once you land your SDR role, the question quickly becomes: how do you move up? Too many SDRs spend a year or two booking meetings but never get promoted because they do not know how to stand out. SDR to AE Accelerator solves that problem.
Who it’s for:
- SDRs at big companies like Amazon, Oracle, or Salesforce
- SDRs at startups who need to figure things out with little or no training
- Anyone who wants to become a top performer and set themselves up for a faster AE promotion
What you get:
- 25+ hours of curriculum designed to cover your entire SDR journey, from day one on the job to your AE promotion
- Templates for cold emails, cold calls, and territory plans that come directly from top-performing reps
- A step-by-step playbook for your 30-60-90 day plan
- Weekly live coaching calls where you can trade strategies with reps at other top companies
- Tactics for working effectively with your AE, building your internal brand, and managing up with your manager
Why it works:
The Accelerator is not just about booking more meetings—it is about building a system that gets you promoted. You learn how to run smarter outreach, partner with your AE so you get credit for more pipeline, and consistently outperform your peers. Many of our students have gone from average performance to hitting 200–300 percent of quota and earning their AE role in under 18 months.
AE MASTERY: Crush Quota as an Account Executive
As an Account Executive, everything comes down to revenue. AE Mastery exists to help you stop guessing and start following a proven framework that top-performing AEs use every day.
Who it’s for:
- SMB and Mid-Market AEs trying to break into President’s Club
- Enterprise AEs looking for advanced strategies to win complex deals
- SDRs who have just been promoted to AE and want to ramp quickly
What you get:
- 20+ hours of curriculum covering the entire sales cycle, from prospecting your own deals to running high-level discoveries, demos, and negotiations
- Frameworks and scripts for discovery, POCs, proposals, and closing conversations
- Ready-to-use PowerPoint templates for sales decks and territory planning
- Weekly live coaching with AEs who have sold to Fortune 500 companies and consistently beaten quota
- Access to a global network of AEs who share what is working in their deals
Why it works:
AE Mastery is not just about being “better at sales.” It is about breaking down the role into repeatable steps so you know exactly how to progress deals from first call to close. Many students say that even a single section of the program—like the discovery training—is worth the full price. Students have used AE Mastery to go from struggling at small startups to landing AE roles at CrowdStrike, VMware, and other market leaders.
COLD CALL MASTERY: Win More Meetings by Phone
Cold calling is where most SDRs either sink or swim. Cold Call Mastery is Connor Murray’s complete framework for turning those awkward calls into a reliable source of meetings.
Who it’s for:
- SDRs who struggle to book meetings over the phone
- Reps who are confident in email but avoid cold calling
- Founders or business owners who need to generate pipeline themselves
What you get:
- A complete breakdown of territory building, list creation, and call structure
- Scripts and objection-handling frameworks that go beyond “one-liners” and actually help you steer conversations
- Training on tonality, pacing, and confidence on the phone
- Weekly live calls with Connor, who was the number one SDR and SDR Manager at Oracle
Why it works:
Most people think cold calling is just about the script. Cold Call Mastery shows you how to approach the entire process—who to call, when to call, how to handle objections, and how to build consistency. We have had students go from the bottom of their team leaderboard to number one in less than two months after implementing these methods.
COLD EMAIL ENGINE: Build Emails That Convert
If your emails are getting ignored, you are not alone. Cold Email Engine gives you the proven frameworks used by the top SDR teams in the world.
Who it’s for:
- SDRs who want to dramatically improve reply rates
- Founders who need to generate meetings without a sales team
- Reps who feel like they are “just trying random things” with no system
What you get:
- Persona-based messaging frameworks
- Step-by-step training on how to build high-quality prospect lists
- Proven cadences and sequences used by reps at Oracle and other top companies
- Weekly live calls with Connor to refine your messaging and troubleshoot campaigns
Why it works:
Instead of just handing you templates, Cold Email Engine teaches you how to think about messaging and prospecting. Students regularly overhaul their approach and see major improvements in both volume and quality of responses.
AI SALES ACCELERATOR: Save 10+ Hours a Week with AI
This is the most recent program, and it is quickly becoming one of the most popular. AI Sales Accelerator is not just a collection of prompts—it is a full system to help you use AI as your personal sales assistant.
Who it’s for:
- SDRs who want to prospect faster and personalize outreach at scale
- AEs who need help prepping for discoveries, writing proposals, or running account plans
- Sales managers and founders who want to save time on repetitive workflows
What you get:
- 30+ custom GPTs that handle account research, territory planning, cold calls, cadences, and discovery prep
- Step-by-step training on how to create your own GPTs for your unique workflow
- Curriculum that shows you exactly how to save 10+ hours per week while improving quality
- Ongoing updates as AI tools evolve so you are always ahead of the curve
Why it works:
Most people buy AI tools but never get them to fit their workflow. This program gives you proven, ready-to-use GPTs that save you time immediately, plus the ability to create your own. Students report freeing up entire workdays each month while increasing output and personalization.
