Together we will optimise your sales processes and tactics and increase your turnover.

The Sales Masterclass is a cooperation between:
Conditions of participation
The practical online programme for your sales performance
You should meet the following requirements to participate in the Sales Masterclass.
You have 1.5 hours on tuesdays and thursdays for 8 weeks, and you're ready to commit to a total of 12 weeks of intensive mentoring.
You can apply for funding on the participation fee if your startup is based in Baden-Württemberg. More on this in the next section.
You are part of a revenue- ready startup, which means you have (recurring) revenue.
Sales is running, but there are still problems with financing?
We also offer the Masterclass for other areas. Have a look at our Fundraising Masterclass .
COSTS AND FUNDING
Apply for funding with your team
The Sales Masterclass costs € 2,990 plus VAT per startup,regardless of team size. This amount consists of two equal parts:
Setup costs
Amount: € 1,495 plus VAT
Covering: Inputs, mockup sessions, founder talk,
organization, onboarding, tools & processes
Mentoring costs
Amount: € 1,495 plus VAT
Covering: 1-on-1 access to our mentors throughout
the entire duration of the program
If your team is based in Baden-Württemberg, you can apply for funding during the registration process - primarily for the setup part (half funding) or for the entire amount (full funding). Funding is excluded or limited if your team is already receiving other comprehensive funding at the same time, such as through EXIST or Junge Innovatoren.
We give priority to covering setup costs for teams from Baden-Württemberg. Based on our experience, mentoring that a team invests in itself is used much more intensively and taken more seriously than mentoring provided free of charge.
The decision to provide funding is based primarily on revenue figures from the last and current year. For revenue up to a six-figure amount, we cover the setup costs (50%). For revenue up to a five-figure amount, we cover both setup and mentoring costs, taking into account the startup’s actual revenue readiness.
You can apply for funding directly during the registration process - please indicate your location in Baden-Württemberg and any existing funding you may have. A separate application is not required.

Learn in a short time the 1×1 to validate your product with paying customers, develop it further and place it correctly on the market. It's not just about selling, but about taking the entire sales/go-to-market process to a higher level.

I was a little hesitant at first, but the Sales Masterclass far exceeded my expectations. Thanks to the course, we have fundamentally revised our sales strategies. Dealing with our customers is now much more professional and we are experiencing an improved deal flow. The combination of motivating sessions, practical knowledge and individual coaching really impressed me. I would attend again without hesitation!
