EdTech Sales Navigator

Navigate the Labyrinth of Education Sales

EdTech Sales Navigator is built for the unique — and uniquely frustrating — world of selling to educational institutions. K-12 districts have budget cycles that start 18 months before purchase, procurement processes that require board approval, and funding sources (Title I, ESSER, E-Rate) that each have their own compliance requirements. This skill helps you navigate all of it, from identifying grant-eligible prospects to timing your outreach around budget planning seasons.

How It Works

Specify your target segment (K-12 district, charter network, community college, university) and the skill adapts its playbook accordingly. For K-12, it maps district budget cycles, identifies active grants and funding sources, and generates procurement-compliant proposals. For higher education, it navigates departmental budgets, faculty governance, and institutional purchasing requirements. Both tracks include stakeholder mapping across administrators, teachers, IT directors, and board members.
