Tech Sales Accelerator

Tech Sales Accelerator is an educational course that teaches beginners how to sell technology to government buyers in the public sector. The program is organized into three tracks — Mobility, Smart Cities, and Smart Energy — and covers topics such as public-sector procurement, industry-specific terminology, and pre-RFP capture strategies. The curriculum consists of nine modules per track with graded exams and culminates in a capstone portfolio intended to be presented during job interviews.

The course is priced at $397 per track, allowing learners to choose a specific industry focus. Each track includes nine modules, graded exams, and a final capstone portfolio that students present during interviews to demonstrate their skills to potential employers.

The curriculum is built around a capture system that assigns a readiness score, starting at a 20% baseline and increasing by 10 points for every confirmed proof, capped at 95%. This system uses color-coded statuses—Green, Yellow, or Red—to guide learners through six mandatory gates and provide a specific playbook for each stage of the pursuit.

The program teaches students to read budget books, dockets, and minutes to identify deals months before they are published as RFPs. By learning pre-RFP capture strategies, students can understand how public contracts are shaped early, giving them an advantage over those who only learn generic sales techniques.

The course utilizes the Northview case study across all three tracks, featuring a fleet-electrification deal, a city safety program, and a utility AMI modernization. This approach allows students to learn the capture process once and apply it to different industries, ensuring they understand the underlying mechanics rather than memorizing isolated facts.

The Mobility track focuses on transit and public mobility, covering agencies, boards, and the FTA money stack. Students learn about specific technologies like CAD/AVL, fare tech, and fleet electrification, while also understanding the competitive field and consultant channel dynamics in this sector.

The Smart Cities track addresses the unique procurement processes of councils, boards, and regulators that approve spending in the public sector. Learners gain the ability to explain complex technologies like RTCC and ATMS in buyer language, preparing them to interview as experienced professionals.

The Smart Energy track covers the utility AMI modernization market and the specific regulatory environment that governs energy technology purchases. Students learn to pitch products like DERMS in a way that resonates with utility buyers and regulators.

The course teaches students to identify when a pursuit is neutral or tilted toward a competitor, advising them to deprioritize or move to a pilot path if the readiness score is below 55%. This skill of knowing when to walk is presented as a critical part of the capture system.

The course teaches students to write a 14-day gap-closing plan when their readiness score is between 55% and 79%, with one or two gates still open. This exercise mirrors the exact method used by capture teams to close critical proofs and move the pursuit forward.

The curriculum includes 127 lessons and 308 exam questions designed to test knowledge of the specific industry tracks. The capstone portfolio serves as the final deliverable, which students present to demonstrate their readiness for a job interview.

The website states that hiring managers in transit, city, and utility tech do not pick reps based on cold calls alone. Instead, they value candidates who can explain technical terms like RTCC or DERMS and show up with a real territory plan, which this course aims to teach.

The course claims to teach students how to explain technologies like RTCC, ATMS, AMI, and DERMS in a way that can be said out loud in an interview. This one-breath explanation capability is presented as a key differentiator for new sales representatives.
