This list is for anyone who sells, or is about to: a new sales rep, a founder who has to bring in the first customers, a consultant who hates feeling pushy, or someone who simply wants to get better at asking for a yes. Our new sales category lists 64 courses. These ten are the ones we would pick for each need. They have over 68,000 student reviews between them and are rated 4.4 to 4.8. Seven were updated in 2025 or 2026; one, Grant Cardone’s, dates from 2015, and we say so below.
Every rating, review count, length and last-update date on this page comes from our catalogue and is refreshed with it. The pros and cons are written by CourseDuck’s editors from the course syllabus and a sample of the written student reviews, and checked against both; no course pays to be on this list. Udemy prices move with its sales, so treat the price on each card as the current one, not a fixed one.

1. Sales Training: Practical Sales Techniques
Chris Croft’s course is the most-reviewed course in our sales category: about 36,000 reviews at 4.7 and more than 115,000 students. It teaches a simple sequence, build rapport, diagnose what the customer needs, prescribe a solution, handle objections and close, in about 2.6 hours over 40 mostly short lectures with four quizzes, and frames selling as helping rather than pushing. It was updated in May 2025. Reviewers call it clear, practical and straight to the point. It is introductory, the prescribing part is about six minutes, and there are no assignments, so practice is up to you.
Pros
- Clear flow from rapport to diagnosing, objections and closing, easy to follow for newcomers
- Short lectures and 2.6 hours in total, so it is easy to finish in a couple of sittings
- Croft draws on real experience, and reviewers call him a great teacher
- Rated 4.7 from nearly 36,000 reviews, with about 59 percent giving five stars
Cons
- Introductory only: the prescribing section is just six minutes across two lectures
- Four quizzes and no assignments, so practising the techniques is left to the learner
- One reviewer wanted more theory on planning and mapping, another had playback trouble
What students say
Clinton LewisWell for my first foray into understanding sales and marketing this was an interesting and educational watch which helped me understand the basics which I found helpful and can use in my role.
Dewaynethis is actually really good. He explained the new way of selling verbally in todays world which is building a relationship with the customer. Then that's when they inquire the customers about their needs.

2. Sales 101: How to Sell Anything (49 Amazing Sales Tips)
Chris Haroun packs 49 short tips into about 1.8 hours over 54 lectures, in three parts: sales psychology, technology and communication, and pricing. Topics run from first impressions and body language to asking for the sale, email and LinkedIn, and a free book version comes with it. It was updated in May 2025 and has about 2,000 reviews at 4.7. Reviewers call it practical and encouraging. Lower-star reviewers find the advice basic or repetitive, several tips lean on face-to-face selling, and the pricing part is about four minutes.
Pros
- Short at 1.8 hours, so it is easy to finish in a sitting or two
- Reviewers say the tips are easy to follow and shift their mindset
- Goes beyond in-person selling: email, LinkedIn, automation and content
- Needs no selling experience, and a free book version is included
Cons
- Some reviewers call the advice basic or repetitive, with topics restated in new words
- Several tips lean on face-to-face selling and feel dated for online sales
- The pricing section is six lectures and about four minutes, so it is very light
What students say
Brian HarteThis is one of the best sells courses I have taken. It covers just about everything you need to know to improve your sells. I love the workbook where I can write down how to apply each lesson to my business.
Lucien MostertChris was very informative, and I learnt a lot from this course that I can definitely apply to my everyday life when doing sales. Thank you Chris for the brilliant course and the positive attitude through out.

3. Sales Skills: 11 Sales Training Courses In 1
Expert Academy’s course is eleven sales courses in one: about 12.2 hours over 205 lectures with 31 quizzes, from sales psychology and objection handling through negotiation, pitching, funnels, social selling, sales leadership and virtual meetings. It was updated in September 2026 and has about 2,600 reviews at 4.6. Reviewers call it clear and beginner friendly, and the short sections make it easy to jump to the part you need. Experienced reps, one with 36 years in sales, found little new, and some found it theoretical, with few scripts or B2B examples.
Pros
- Eleven tracks in one place, from objections and pricing to pitching and virtual selling
- Reviewers call it clear, easy to follow and beginner friendly
- Updated in September 2026, with 1,739 of 2,627 ratings at five stars
- Sections are short, so jumping to the topic you need is easy
Cons
- Experienced salespeople report finding little new, one after 36 years in the field
- Some reviewers find it theoretical, with few scripts or B2B examples
- Slow in places, with one reviewer asking it to get to the point sooner
What students say
Willem Janse van RensburgThat everybody is selling something, but if delivered wrongly and to the incorrect person or persons, you will either lose the sale and lose the relationship to do future business with the customer or you will make a quick sale and could have its own faults.
Anca MunteanuThis course is such a great tool for shaping sales psychology, understanding why people buy, and preparing the first pitch. I'm currently working in marketing and planning to shift my career toward sales and I got so much value from each section of this course.

B2B, consultative and value selling
4. B2B Sales Skills Training: Consultative Selling Master Class
Lawrence M. Miller teaches consultative selling: working out the client’s problem with them and building the solution together, instead of pitching. It runs about six hours over 55 lectures with eight quizzes, from a field study of top truck salespeople through branding and the sales funnel to the consultative conversation. It was updated in February 2026 and has about 5,300 reviews at 4.6. Reviewers like the clear structure and Miller’s experience. There is only one role play, one reviewer felt half the course was the instructor’s own stories, and keeping the client after the sale gets two short lectures.
Pros
- Built around trust and shared problem solving, which suits selling consulting and other services
- Uses a field study of top truck salespeople and a real proposal that sold for over a million dollars
- Short at about six hours, with eight quizzes to check understanding along the way
- Reviewers say the lessons are practical and the instructor clearly knows the work
Cons
- Only one role play, and a reviewer found its setup confusing and too early in the course
- One reviewer says half the course is the instructor’s own life and experiences, which felt like wasted time
- Post-sale service gets just two short lectures, and one reviewer hit a lecture that would not load
What students say
Anonymized UserNice insights into consultative selling and the final section on Essential communication skills was really a reminder about how important these small things can be. Love the voice of the facilitator and how he injects thoughts / pauses and sometimes intentionally leaves few points incomplete 🙂
Morakane MvundlaThis course is important because it helps individuals navigate the work environment, start fresh, improve themselves, and set clear career goals. It is informative and encourages action. I am glad I enrolled, as I now have a new perspective on consultative selling and the power of strong selling skills.

5. Master value selling instead of price
Amaro Araujo’s short course is for B2B sellers who keep getting dragged into haggling over price: what value means to a buyer, why value selling sometimes falls short, tightening a proposal, then negotiating and closing. It runs about 74 minutes over 14 lectures with four quizzes, two practice tests and a business case, and uses film clips such as 12 Angry Men to show persuasion. It was updated in September 2025 and has about 3,700 reviews at 4.5. It assumes you know the basics of sales and pricing. Reviewers call the narration soft and monotone, and some slides move fast with few recaps.
Pros
- Short at 74 minutes and gets to the point without much theory
- Movie clips such as 12 Angry Men put negotiation concepts in concrete scenes
- Quizzes, practice tests and a business case let learners check what stuck
- Rated 4.5 across 3,703 reviews, with most students giving four or five stars
Cons
- Narration is described as soft and monotone, which some found hard to stay with
- Some slides move fast and there are few recaps, so reviewers rewound often
- Movie section has no introduction, and one reviewer hit typos and out-of-order quiz questions
What students say
Anonymized UserIt teaches us how to differentiate between customers who are only looking for cost plus and the ones looking for value so that you can handle the right ones that suit your business and the services/products you are selling
Larnelle BritzI enjoyed this course especially because I have always been one for selling value instead of price. I received more tips and new strategies to sell value instead of price. Worth watching more than once to grasp all the concepts.

6. Create B2B Sales Cold Calling Scripts & Value Propositions
Derek Shebby, who spent 17 years developing B2B reps at Xerox, spends most of this 55-minute course on a four-step method for building a value proposition, then turns it into a cold calling talk track and an elevator pitch. It has 17 lectures, about 2,200 reviews at 4.7, and was last updated in February 2023. Reviewers like the concept-then-examples format. The examples are basic product features that can be hard to map onto a complex business, cold calling itself gets two short lectures, and the templates are image files rather than editable documents.
Pros
- Short enough to finish in one sitting: 17 lectures and about 55 minutes of video
- Reviewers like each concept broken down and followed by multiple examples
- A four-step value proposition method that ends in a cold call script and an elevator pitch
- Derek Shebby draws on 17 years training B2B reps at Xerox, and reviewers call it easy to follow
Cons
- Examples are basic product features and hard to relate to a more complex business
- Cold calling gets only two short lectures, so the title promises more than it delivers
- Templates come as png files, with no editable version, and the last update was February 2023
What students say
Karen Melissa Beltrán GalvánIt's a very interesting course, so different from what I've been told regarding B2B sales and also very helpful to identify those important points on the call that help engaging with the customer in just a few words.
James McGrewVery helpful reminder that sales is a process that needs to be followed. You must throughly research both the company and the prospect to ensure that your product or service will both satisfy a need and align with their expectations

Objections, negotiation and closing
7. Sales Skills & Negotiation Skills - Selling Masterclass
Mark Timberlake’s course is the long, structured one for people new to sales: about 12.2 hours over 291 lectures, from mindset and how buyers think through prospecting by networking, phone and online, body language, negotiation, objections and closing. Objection handling alone gets 59 lectures and negotiation 38. It was last updated in May 2023 and has about 2,800 reviews at 4.6. Reviewers call the explanations clear, with practical examples. Some feel simple points are stretched out and the pace is slow, and the course itself tells experienced sales consultants to skip it.
Pros
- Objection handling gets 59 lectures and negotiation 38, so the core sales skills get real time
- Reviewers say the explanations are clear and easy to follow, with practical examples
- Covers prospecting by networking, phone and online, plus body language and questioning
- Opens with emotional control and how buyers think, which one reviewer found different from other sales training
Cons
- Some reviewers feel simple points are stretched out and the pace runs slow
- Delivery is flat for some, with one reviewer saying the voice needs a boost
- Weak on assessment: one reviewer found section questions unintuitive, another wanted objective tests
What students say
Matt WeilerThis a great course, covers essentially every topic on Sales Skills & Negotiation. Good principles. I like the online format, easy to pickup and start where you left off. Also this course is focused on principles and not trying to market additional material. I would recommend this course.
Anonymized UserThe content was great and I enjoyed the course. The tips on handling objections and SMART are very useful. It was a nice touch to pose questions instead of having endless tests. Udemy’s copyright protection made it hard to take screenshots for notes, which I could still do on the laptop… Perhaps include some notes in the resource?

8. Sales Mastery: How to Sell Anything & Close Deals
Desmond Byram teaches low-pressure selling for newcomers, freelancers, coaches and owners who feel awkward asking for the sale: how buyers think, then closing, then productivity and habits, in about 9.7 hours over 46 lectures. It was updated in May 2026 and has about 2,300 reviews at 4.4. Reviewers call the delivery energetic and easy to digest. There are no quizzes or exercises, the later sections drift into habits such as a long morning routine segment, and some reviewers point to factual slips and a slow pace.
Pros
- Energetic, easy to follow delivery that reviewers say suits complete sales beginners
- Strong ratings: 1,342 of 2,326 are five stars and 743 more are four stars
- Covers buyer psychology, trust and objection handling without pushy scripts
- Updated in May 2026, split into 46 short lectures across three sections
Cons
- No quizzes, exercises or assignments, so practice is left to the student
- Later sections drift into habits, including a long morning routine segment
- Some reviewers cite factual slips, repetition and a slow, forced enthusiastic tone
What students say
Lazola Bulelani MadyosiYes, this course is useful as I am in the people business. The course emphasises the importance of how buyer selling an idea that will add value for the client's needs. You provide the corrected information to client or customer's brain, the customer sells themselves into an idea.

Reading people and staying motivated
9. People Skills. How people tick & how to read them instantly!
Andy Edwards’s course is about the buyer rather than the pitch: a simple colour model of personality, drawn from Jungian psychology, and how to adapt your style to each type. It runs about 99 minutes over 28 lectures, and you get a free mini profile of your own type. It was updated in September 2025 and has about 6,400 reviews at 4.5. Reviewers call it concise, practical and energetic. One found it brief with very few examples, and the ideas only stick with practice in real conversations.
Pros
- Seven short sections of 2 to 7 lectures each and 99 minutes in total make it easy to fit in
- Reviewers call it concise and practical, useful in work and personal conversations
- Simple colour model based on Jungian psychology, and one reviewer calls the content easy to understand
- Includes a free mini profile that tells students their own ‘8 Type’
Cons
- At 99 minutes, one reviewer found it brief with very few examples to absorb
- Light on depth: it is not an academic psychology course, and the audience notes say so
- Learning sticks only with practice, and a few reviewers say they must revisit the material
What students say
Niraj DhavleThis course has been highly beneficial both personally and professionally. It provided valuable knowledge and practical insights that can be applied in real-life situations as well as in the workplace. The content was informative, well-structured, and easy to understand.
Gavin YipGreat practical ways to have the right starting position to visualize behavior pattern and taking the necessary precautions to ensure not losing the person from the start of engagement. Do watch out not to box people in subconsciously and adapt as the interaction progress!

10. Learn to Sell Anything by Grant Cardone
Grant Cardone’s course is about sales mindset more than mechanics, with sections such as The Price Myth, The Magic of Agreement and Massive Action, in about 5.7 hours over 58 lectures. It has about 5,500 reviews at 4.8, the highest rating on this list, and reviewers call him charismatic. It was last updated in November 2015, so there is nothing on today’s tools, social selling or CRM, there are no closing techniques, and readers of his books may find it repetitive. Take it for motivation, alongside one of the courses above.
Pros
- Reviewers call the instructor charismatic and professional
- Strong on attitude, psychology and mindset, with sections on price, time and action
- Short at 5.7 hours, so it is easy to finish in a few sittings
- Some students say they can apply the ideas in their current job
Cons
- No closing techniques, as one reviewer points out
- Last updated in 2015, so nothing here reflects current sales tools
- Can feel repetitive and surface level for anyone who knows his books
What students say
Dominique N. PacquiaoThis course is absolutely practical and empowering. The lesson has corrected a lot of traditional selling strategies and selling within the box. I love the ideas as they can be executed right away. This is a great course! Love it!!! Thanks GC!!!!
