Bravado レビュー 155

Ryan was extremely helpful, very supportive through the process and put me together with a great company that very excited to be joining.

Bravado is a no nonsense forum made specifically for sales people. The moderation team is top notch and allow for honest, critical, and productive conversation among professionals. Works as a de facto record keeper for all of your sales wins as well so you don't have to rely on your company's internal CRM for bulking your own resume. I've never utilized the recruiting side of Bravado, but I think it's far more robust platform than it was 2 years ago when I joined.

Bravado was a professional, hands-on recruitment service that didn't waste time with poor-fit roles or extensive, redundant pre-interview screenings. I think a large part of my positive experience is due to the double opt-in model they use to match candidates with roles, but the team ensured I was prepared ahead of the interview process starting while allowing me to take initiative as a candidate. I signed up with Bravado on a whim a few months prior to getting a match but only got pinged when there was a good-fit match ready to begin interviewing. The Bravado team was clear about what the process would entail and helped me prepare for it, ultimately leading to an offer.

My only critical feedback is that there was a discrepancy between the role posted on Bravado and the role as described by my new employer but the role was actually a better fit for my experience and the discrepancy may have been by-design on the part of the hiring manager to attract a specific candidate experience profile. With that said, the uncertainty was quickly cleared up.

I have already referred multiple friends looking for their next opportunity to the Bravado network.

Bravado was great to work with – shout out to Ryan for all of the help landing my new role, including taking time to prep me for the final round interview. It was also great to have the chance to connect with their CEO, Sahil, after accepting my job offer. Really happy with Bravado from start to finish.

This is the best Sales Community out there. So much to learn, many experienced folks just talking, exploring, educating, and engaging. I found this platform to be very useful and enlightening. I highly recommend it to anyone who is remotely close to the field of Sales.

Bravado is a place to speak the truth about sales careers and to get a true trusted opinion from other similar industry professionals. It is a place I feel free to vent or ask questions from a trusted group of people. I enjoy some of the funny comments, but know everyone on the app is helpful and full of great knowledge they share.
I highly recommend the Bravado app and enjoy using the 'War Room'.

The whole experience working with Bravado was a great and seamless experience. I worked directly with Juliette Carvalho and her responsiveness and helpfulness is unmatchable! They aligned me with a company that I ultimately received an offer and had accepted, but to top off how great this is is how great the company I am now working for is. Throughout the entire process Juliette was very communicative and offered any assistance that would be needed throughout the process. I have already started recommending Bravado to colleagues and will definitely use Bravado again for future endeavors as needed.

Bravado is a great community for top sellers. I haven't used the jobs feature but the community board consistently has engaging topics. For a remote worker, I think its essential to breathe some of these things so you can stay in the headspace of sales. You loose the water cooler talk and this helps a lot of it. Not to mention the great advice from the community

Bravado has been an incredible community as well as a tool! Learning from seasoned sales professionals in a variety of different industries has helped me scope out new roles, figure out what i valued, and even make a career switch!

I had signed up for Bravado a few months ago when I was window shopping for a new role, and my circumstances changed so I ended up not utilizing the service at that time and stay at my current role...

...However a few months later, I got an email from Bravado about a 100% match for a role. Out of curiosity I took the first call, and realized that it truly was a perfect fit, and one that I would have never found otherwise. My Bravado resource, Juliette, was extremely helpful and checked in with me every step of the way to make sure that I was comfortable with the process. I ended up receiving and accepting the offer.

My first experience with Bravado was extremely positive, and I will both plan to use Bravado the next time I'm ready for a new adventure, as well as recommend it to friends who are looking for new sales roles.

If you want real world done and proven collective experience with no BS, rather than the fluff piece you might have seen influencers bring on your social media, this is the place to go. (Been burned before and should have come here first for advice).

Bravado has lots to offer from curated contents in the academy section, Tech Sales U to any burning questions you may have - they got it all covered, just need the right question. Plus we live in an incentive driven world, who doesn’t like commissions on contributions you make to the page that you can use to exchange for cool stuff?

Bravado is a terrible system for applicants, especially for any non-sales specific roles. You MUST enter sales information to continue making a profile, if you are not applying to a sales position and have never done sales you cannot continue with your application, they only show you roles that THEY think you are qualified for, you cannot apply to roles that YOU want to apply to, and they ask for personal information like current salary and sales deals that might fall under NDA. I would give this a 0/5 if possible.

Not sure who to talk to at work about a particular scenario?

Want to make sure your not the insane one?

Need to practice a pitch? Nail a job interview? Find helpful resources and perspectives?

There’s a lot of talk today about having a “third place”. That spot you can go to, embrace like minded individuals, and learn from others experiences.

Bravado has provided that for me. Anonymous, servant leaders hoping to encourage and empower others has been my experience.

To the negative reviews, I can’t speak on as my experience has been different but if you are looking for support, sales minded professionals who collectively have seen a thing or two, it’s a good spot to connect.

I have found Bravado very useful. It is a place where I can get new ideas and information about sales. I can also share my own insights. I like the features they are adding and I look forward to the changes in the future.

It is a useful and fun platform. I plan to use it to get other jobs and improve my sales skills.

So you need to create an account with Bravado if you want to "apply" to the job you found online that they are advertising. Annoying, but not uncommon.

However, in order to create a Bravado account, they require access to ALL of your Google contacts. Why on earth would you need that level of access to my information, just to create an account?

If you choose to actually do this, you're then asked to upload your resume. Once that is uploaded, they require you go through your work history, role by role, and provide the name of the specific client, the specific stakeholder, and what specific product you sold them, and when. They try and play it up like potential employers find specific examples of success appealing in their candidate evaluations, blah, blah, blah.

I'm sure there isn't a bunch of slimey sales "professionals" at Bravado NOT poaching my professional contacts or sales history information for their own personal lead gen activities.

Sure, this is probably all legal, but this company is trash, and all they are after is your sales contacts.

Borderline scummy practices, but on the wrong side of the line.
Subscribe to get weird offers by email, be part of a rotten “Wolf of Wall Street”-mindset community, get invited to cult-like events, be asked to share private info from your company for fantasy rewards, when the whole website is a copy of Reddit’s /r/sales.

Bravado is like the Hotel California, you can check in any time you like but you can never leave. There is no way to delete your account online and their terms say that you have to give them 14 days written notice to delete your account. Unacceptable. What are they afraid of?

Took a little while to find my voice in the community but after commenting on a few posts and publishing some myself, I learned that the community is full of Sales pros looking to share their hard-earned wisdom.

Tons of jokes abound, but I would have expected nothing less from this audience, and am so grateful to have found a place to talk shop and learn all about how to raise my Sales game.

This isn't your regular professional development community – and that's a good thing.

Alright! I was waiting until I spent some time on Bravado to really get the lay of the land, observe and then contribute.
I am very impressed with the site especially the knowledge gained when communicating with other members. Need sales advice about a specific situation? Ask. Boss being a challenge? Get input. Wondering about an industry? Yep ask and you shall receive. The input is incredibly valuable and I’ve personally used plenty of the input from individuals and resources available on the site in my professional career and progression.
The site has rules so follow them and people engage!
5 stars hands down. I’ve referred a colleague and they are obsessed with the content as well.
See you on bravado!
