The Real Challenges Every SDR Faces with Getting Promoted To AE
Look mate, here’s what I’ve learned in more than 10 years of sales & coaching...
The biggest obstacle in an SDR’s road to the AE role isn’t:
❌ Lack of skills.
❌ Lack of experience.
❌ Lack of results.
(Although they matter A LOT.)
But the real obstacle is lack of access.
Access to someone who could:
Break down your discovery calls live and hand you the exact framework to fix them.
Show you in real-time how top AEs multithread deals and keep every stakeholder moving.
Role-play your toughest price and contract objections so you're ready under pressure.
Teach you exactly how to position yourself as the obvious choice so by the time you walk into interviews, you’re already the standout candidate.
Actually be available and respond when you’re stuck, and need help — not days or weeks later.
And the perfect person to give you that kind of access would be a top AE at your company who’s sitting on top of the leaderboards right now.
But here's the hard truth:
❌ Top AEs don't always hang out with SDRs.
At best, you might get a few vague “dos and don’ts” thrown your way... if you’re lucky.
And even when someone genuinely wanted to help you…
It would start with, “Let’s grab some time next week.”
Then next week would become, “Hey, sorry… my deal’s blowing up, can we push to later?”
And after the third or fourth “something came up”...
You get the message…
It’s not that they don’t care. It’s just... you’re not their priority.
Their own deals... their own quota... their own career... always comes first.
That’s why real AE readiness can’t depend on hope... or someone else's schedule.
That lack of consistent access and structured support is exactly what causes career stagnation — and eventually, hopelessness.
…because while you’re waiting
…for someone to finally make time for you,
…for someone to notice you’re ready,
…for someone to leave (or get fired) so a spot opens up...
Time keeps slipping by.
Promotions happen around you.
New SDRs join and start chasing the same limited AE seats.
And slowly, without even realizing it… you go from feeling ready to feeling invisible.
Not because you lacked potential.
Not because you didn’t work hard enough.
But because no one showed you how to bridge the gap between "hitting quota" and proving you're ready to own a full pipeline.
It demands numbers from you... but doesn’t invest in growing you.
It expects you to crush quota... without ever giving you the tools to take the next step.
It expects you to be “ready”... without showing you HOW it’s done.
And I know this firsthand…

The 3 Fatal Mistakes That Slow Down Your Sales Career
Not Having Access To Coaching / AE Skills
Most sales professionals think they can self-coach or rely on their manager to give them all the skills they need. But usually this ends up in them waiting on false promises or the process going 10x slower.
How SDR to AE Fixes This:
You get access to someone who has helped >250+ SDRs get promoted already and go onto be successful in their AE journeys. You can lean into real experience from a coach who is always there for you.
Not Able To Demonstrate Your Skills
Many reps think hitting their SDR quota is enough to be an AE. Big mistake. AE leaders and hiring want proof you can do the role before you start it. If you don’t have the skills or you’ve never tried to learn them it’s highly unlikely they’ll promote you. And even if they do, >50% will fail in year 1 due a lack of baseline knowledge.
How SDR to AE Fixes This:
Master my SDR to AE programme and you’ll get all the skills, frameworks, tactics and strategies you need to build trust with your hiring managers you can start crushing your AE quota from day 1.
You Have No Interview Skills
The average SDR has done 4 interviews in their life. This means on average SDRs have very few, if any, interview skills. In a competitive environment like an AE job application a lack of interview skills translates into rejection.
How SDR to AE Fixes This:
You’ll get access to my complete interview guide and workshops to help you stand-out and position yourself as the best choice candidate for the role. Inside, you’ll learn how to sell yourself and in return you’ll earn 6-figure salary offers and a new job title.
