This is a cool idea, and builds on the rubble of similar models in the dev bootcamp space, which had great models but unfortunately faced the difficult truth that great dev skills just can't be learned in a matter of months.
Sales on the other hand, is a different story.
As a founder of a B2C/B2B tech company in SF, I've experienced first-hand the serious shortage of junior salespeople in the market. What we need are smart, driven people with a modicum of experience. We can't take folks from square zero, but we can take them from square one.. and it sounds like Flockjay can help get folks there.
Very excited to see your progress, guys. Be in touch once your first class is ready.
Pros:Good solution for a problem I experience every day
Cons:Is the total addressable market big enough? How do you solve the geographic disparity between supply and demand for sales personnel?
