I really liked how interactive the trainings were, especially having a live roleplay instead of just being lectured on how we could improve without any practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being nit-picky but the e-trainings and handouts given could use a marketing refresh. Great information, but the layout seemed a bit dated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Factor 8 for their focus on improving our sales pitch, recognizing key habits, and overcoming objections, which helped me navigate calls more smoothly. The structured approach to handling objections as time-based, solution-based, and value-based was particularly beneficial. I found their role play sessions to be invaluable in practicing skills in real time. Their responsive support team was always there to help, even after hours, and provided knowledgeable advice promptly when needed, which helped me secure sales. The downloadable PDF files were useful for studying after work and during calls, providing clear guidance on overcoming objections. The frequent meet-ups and live support fostered creativity and eagerness to learn, making me more efficient on the phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would add a bit more role play so that we can naturally practice what we are learning in real time. Role play is a hands-on way to forge new skills for me. People learn differently but I am definitely a hands-on person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Factor 8 has helped me sharpen my cold-calling, referral-asking, and objection-handling skills, and improve as a salesperson. I find the objection-handling and cold-calling training valuable. It has helped me close more deals, prospect better, improve conversions, and close more business. Jen is a really good teacher. She brings a lot of energy, engages the whole team, and helps me reflect on my work and how I sell so I can improve. The team isn’t always thrilled about training, so having someone who gets us excited and engaged makes a huge difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the lessons feel less productive than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Factor 8 takes its attendees as they are. I’ve always felt welcomed and encouraged to bring my whole self—imperfections and all—to every session. Between the community and the facilitation, each conversation and topic feels safe, supportive, and open to honest communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside was that I occasionally had required work meetings scheduled at the same time as the Factor 8 sessions, which meant I missed the live sessions. The recordings were great and definitely helped, but there’s nothing quite like being there for the session in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interactive nature of the training stood out the most. It wasn’t just someone talking at us for hours; we were actually doing the work together, practicing, and having real conversations. The role plays and interactions felt purposeful—they weren’t just time-filling activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I didn’t dislike the training itself, the content and overall approach were solid. What threw me off was the logistics around it, which felt a bit messy at times. In particular, the tools and timelines were confusing to navigate.

I’m not very familiar with Slack, so having to jump between platforms and keep track of what was happening where (and when) became distracting. It ended up pulling my attention away from the actual learning.

For me, an optional best-practices guide for the tools would’ve been a game-changer. Something simple like: “here’s how to set up notifications,” “here’s where you’ll find the key information,” and “here’s the timeline for modules and check-ins.” Nothing fancy, just enough to help me get oriented from the start.

The mentor alignment gave me a trusted sounding board to talk through both the trainings and my day-to-day work as a sales leader. Building that relationship was highly beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As part of the weekly sessions, we had the opportunity to participate in breakout sessions. They were a great way to hear from peers across different organizations and collaborate in real time. However, with only 5–10 minutes to discuss, there were times when the breakouts ended right in the middle of really valuable conversations. It would be great if these breakout sessions could be a bit longer so we could continue the discussion and wrap up our thoughts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Sales Bar is excellent. This is not a "dislike", but I'd recommend a continuous refresh of the content and UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only that we didnt get more time with them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like working with Jen. She is very energetic and the enthusiasm hops off the screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe the meeting can be scheduled a little closer to keep the momentum going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really find Factor 8's services practical and valuable because their structured methodologies can be applied directly to real work, which is important for my team. I appreciate their expertise as it's grounded in real sales leadership experience, which builds trust. The reusable tools like playbooks and coaching guides are incredibly helpful. I also enjoy the SWIIFT intro, especially how it includes role plays and activities provided by Mase, making it fun and dynamic. As I test things out daily, I believe it will improve my call quality, allow me to have stronger discovery conversations, and lead to better conversion rates.

Maybe have it super tailored to our specific campaigns. Maybe seeing the coach practice with some of our lists to see it in real time. Aligning the scripts even more to what we call through daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
