rethinQ Sales U · The Sales Talent Incubator

You know a hungry junior. We turn them into pipeline.

Nominate someone with drive from your own network. We run the bootcamp, the systems, and the coaching for 6–12 months — while they build pipeline exclusively for you. Dedicated outbound, without the headcount risk.

The Problem

The junior isn't the gap. The scaffold is.

  • 01

    You spotted the talent — now what?

    You know someone hungry and coachable. But turning raw drive into booked meetings takes a curriculum, a system, and daily reps you don't have time to run.

  • 02

    A full-time SDR hire is a big bet

    Salary, ramp, tooling, management — all committed before you know if the person or the motion works. Most entry-level sales bets are made blind.

  • 03

    Agencies give you bodies, not owners

    Pooled reps with no stake in your outcome drift off-ICP fast. The accountability that makes outbound work just isn't there.

"Most leaders can name a hungry junior they'd vouch for. Almost none have the time or infrastructure to coach them into a producing rep."

The bet behind Sales U
How It Works

Nominate. Screen. Train. Decide.

Sales U becomes the bootcamp plus performance scaffold. You bring the candidate and the sponsorship; we bring the curriculum, the tooling, and the accountability.

1

You nominate

Name a hungry junior (typically 21–30) from your network. The existing relationship creates real sponsor accountability from day one.

2

We screen

We assess baseline skills, coachability, and persistence against a standardized rubric — a shared go/no-go before anyone starts.

3

We train & manage

For 6–12 months your rep builds pipeline exclusively for you, under continuous rethinQ coaching, QA, and a contracted SLA.

4

You decide

At the 6- and 12-month gates you review the results and choose: continue, convert to a full-time hire, or exit — cleanly.

The Economics

Clean alignment. Clear ownership.

Every dollar has a defined purpose. Two revenue lines work together: a fixed fee that funds the build, and a commission share that ties our return to what your rep actually produces. We only earn our share when the rep produces — so our upside is bolted to your pipeline.

1You fund

The rep's base

You fund a fixed base earmarked entirely to the rep — guaranteed pay that keeps them motivated while the commission upside is shared.

A fixed program fee

We retain 10% of the base for the curriculum, management, QA, and tooling. This funds the cost of building your rep — independent of any single month's numbers.

A commission revenue-share

We share in the commission your rep earns — starting at 50% and stepping down as you commit to a deeper retainer. The rep is always paid their full commission; our share is settled per the retainer.

A clean path to full-time

If the prove-out works, convert your rep to a permanent hire for a fixed buyout — a pre-vetted employee with no guesswork.

Deepest integration / extended term

The more you commit, the more your rep keeps — and the smaller our share. Commitment is rewarded, and the share ends entirely once you convert the rep to full-time.

The result: a repeatable "prove before you hire" channel that de-risks your entry-level sales bets — with rethinQ earning only when your rep produces.

Percentages and figures shown are illustrative and set per engagement. The rep is always paid full commission through your comp plan; rethinQ's tier share is settled separately per the retainer agreement.

The Program

Ramp. Production. Prove-out.

We build the foundations before we push for volume — then measure relentlessly against a contracted SLA.

Weeks 1–4

Ramp

ICP definition, messaging and objection handling, CRM hygiene, call blocks, and daily rhythm — built specifically for your buyer.

→ Ramp scorecard + live playbook

Months 2–6

Production

Quota-bearing outbound: daily targets, SQLs against an agreed definition, and pipeline created — under weekly coaching and QA.

→ Weekly KPI reports + monthly reviews

Months 6 & 12

Prove-out

A clear, evidence-based decision gate against the SLA. You choose to continue, convert the rep to full-time, or exit.

→ Continue · convert · exit

Who It's For

Built for leaders ready to prove before they hire.

Validated ICP, under-invested outbound

You have product-market fit and commission upside, but no time or system to build a real outbound motion.

Founder-led or lean sales teams

Leadership is still carrying pipeline generation personally and needs leverage without a permanent hire.

A junior you'd vouch for

You can name a specific hungry candidate from your network — you just can't coach them into a producing rep.

A "prove before you hire" mindset

You want to de-risk an entry-level sales bet before committing to permanent headcount and full ramp cost.

The Difference

An incubator — never staffing.

The fastest way this model fails is drift into a body shop. So the guardrails are contracted, not aspirational.

01

Scope stays yours

Your rep builds pipeline strictly for you. No shared book, no pooled labor, no reassignment to another client.

02

Outcomes are owned

Contracted SLA and KPIs — dials, meetings, SQLs, pipeline created — with weekly reporting and a named owner for every metric.

03

Sponsorship is the engine

You join weekly deal review, keeping the rep anchored to real product-market fit — and QA enforces ICP discipline throughout.

"We assess before we advise. We measure before we build. We stay until it sticks."

Get started

You already found the talent. Let's prove it out.

Bring us the junior you'd vouch for. We'll bring the bootcamp, the systems, and the accountability — and give you dedicated pipeline without the headcount risk.
