WHO THIS IS FOR & WHO THIS IS NOT FOR

We train aspiring professionals,

not "wanna be's"

  • You want into aviation and nobody in your circle can open the door.

  • You’re coachable, hungry, and willing to follow a proven system.

  • You’ve consumed every podcast, video, and free PDF on aviation sales — and you’re still nowhere.

  • You want a real seat at a real desk, not another certificate to put on LinkedIn.

  • You’re done waiting for the right opportunity to fall in your lap.

  • You want a side hustle to dabble in on weekends.

  • You want to be “in aviation” but you won’t pick up the phone.

  • You think watching content is the same as doing the work.

  • You’re already shopping for a refund before you’ve started.

  • You need to argue with the system instead of running it.

Courses Don't Build Careers. Coaching Does.

You’ve been collecting information. Podcasts, LinkedIn rabbit holes, free Discords, every “how to break into aviation sales” video on YouTube. You know more about this industry than most of the people actually working in it. So why are you still on the outside looking in?

Because more information doesn’t create clarity. It creates paralysis. Aviation sales isn’t a knowledge problem — it’s an access problem. You can’t shadow the right people. You can’t get on the right calls. You don’t know which broker would actually answer your email, let alone hire you. The industry has gatekeepers, and nobody handed you the key.

Aviation shouldn’t be a closed door. AvSales Academy is the path that actually works — coaching, accountability, and placement built for people who weren’t born into this industry but are willing to outwork everyone who was.

But what if...

  • "I don't have any aviation experience..." Neither did Alex. Neither did Alyssa. Aviation knowledge is the easiest part of this program to teach. Hunger is not. If you're hungry, the experience question is already solved.

  • "I don't have time for a 9 month program..." You don't have time NOT to. Trying to break in alone takes years on a generous estimate, and most people quit before year two. Nine months with a guide is the shortest legitimate path that exists.

  • "What if it doesn't work?" - We have a 100% placement rate for students who do the work. If you finish the curriculum, show up to coaching, and run the outreach we hand you - and you're not placed - we keep coaching you, free, until you are. The math: we lose if you don't win.

  • "What if I can't afford it?" Start with the Accelerator at $197. If $197 is out of reach right now, use this as an opportunity to see if you have the resourcefulness to become an Aviation Sales professional. If you're sincere and finances are stopping you, schedule a call and let's talk.

  • "I'm not in the U.S. ..." Aviation is a worldwide industry! We have special tracks for international students. The principles don't change, the tactics adjust.

Don't worry, we can help!

STILL GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a course or something else?

This is a 9 month coaching program with a Professional Certificate Course built in. You'll meet weekly with Tom and work your individual career path plan together while learning the skills and gaining the on the job experience you need to set yourself years ahead of the competition.

👉 Courses don't get you hired. Coaching gets your foot in the door.

Do I need an aviation or sales background to be successful in Aviation Sales?

No. Most of our students start with zero sales or aviation experience. What matters is coachability, work ethic, and integrity. If you’re hungry to learn, we’ll give you the roadmap, tools, and mentorship to thrive.

👉 Don’t wait for “experience.” Start your aviation sales journey now.

How long until I get my first job or sale?

Most committed students land opportunities or sales within 6–9 months. Some move faster, others take longer — but the difference is consistency. With our roadmap, accountability, and connections, you won’t wander.


👉 The sooner you start, the sooner you’ll be interviewing with confidence.

Why should I pay for training I could just get "on the job"?

"On the job" training makes two major assumptions: first that you can get hired without experience, and secondly that the training is any good. Training is what we do. We train people to build successful sustainable aviation sales careers. You're paying to take the guesswork out of "will this work or not?"


👉 Think of it like learning how to fly to become a professional pilot. You have to invest in training (usually $20k or more!) first before you're ready to get hired.

What makes this program different from trying to learn on my own or get hired on my own?

Aviation is a closed-door industry. We give you insider skills, proven strategies, and connections that open doors you’d never reach on your own.


👉 Don’t guess your way in. Get trained the right way.

Is Aviation Sales a sustainable career, or just a flashy hustle only for a select few?

Aviation Sales IS a career — not a hobby or quick gig. Aviation sales, done right, is a lifestyle built on relationships, trust, and long-term growth. Our students aren’t dabbling. They’re building sustainable, six-figure careers they’re proud of.

👉 If you’re serious about a career, not a side hustle, this is your path.

Who succeeds at Aviation Sales? What kind of personality thrives in this industry?

Not the loudest voices or the flashiest résumés. The people who thrive are coachable, hungry to learn, and committed to integrity. They know this isn’t just about deals — it’s about building trust, serving clients, and standing out in a close-knit industry. Remember, it's not just high ticket jet sales, aviation sales is rife with opportunity for smaller ticket items like software, parts, trips and more that lead to a sustainable career.


👉 If you value growth, relationships, and doing things the right way, you’ll fit right in.

Do you offer internships or payment plans?

We don’t trade training for internships. But we do offer flexible payment options:


Pay in full for the best value


Monthly installments (small interest)


3rd-party financing (larger interest)


👉 Money shouldn’t hold you back from starting a career that changes your future. Choose the plan that works and take your first step today.
