Frontline Sales Manager School

The front-line sales manager is the single most important factor in why a rep either succeeds or fails. Most sales reps fall into management without learning the key skills, playbooks, data, and fundamentals to help their teams succeed.

Designed by Laura “LG” Guerra, Frontline Sales Manager School is an 8-session comprehensive school that will teach sales leaders the core foundations of being a successful manager, provide guidance on hiring and managing your first sales team, understanding metrics, how to build a healthy culture, and more principles to enhance your leadership skills.
