Independent sales pros deserve more than a commission check.
Walk Then Run is the community and marketplace where B2B independent reps, rookies and closers alike, compare notes, field test opportunities before they burn a quarter on one, and build a career instead of chasing a gig.
Set up your profile, your vertical, and your deal history. Free for every independent rep, always.
Built for the rep making their first call, and the one training the room.
A professional network built specifically for independent B2B sellers, where experience compounds instead of walking out the door with every rep who quits.
Reps who've been there
Trade objection handling, comp plan math, and territory intel with independent B2B sellers at every stage. Not a forum full of strangers.
Opportunities, field tested
Every listing carries a track record from reps who've actually sold it, not just a job post written by the company hiring for it.
Company reviews with teeth
See comp structure, ramp reality, and support quality before you commit a quarter of unpaid pipeline building to it.
Leverage, not just leads
Seasoned reps build authority by mentoring and reviewing. Newer reps skip the trial and error that costs the most time.
Four stages, one goal: stop spending your time on the wrong deal.
Get inside the room
Set up a rep profile with your vertical, your deal size, and your track record, then join a community that's already vetting opportunities daily.
Borrow the pattern matching
Read what reps who've closed similar deals already learned: comp traps, ramp timelines, and which verticals are moving right now.
Discover tested opportunities
Browse listings and watch the Walk Then Run Score build as reps weigh in, so you can double down or pass with real information, not a guess.
Compound your career
Stack wins, references, and reputation inside one network instead of starting from zero every time you switch opportunities.
Access independent sales talent that chose you.
Stop posting commission only roles into the void and hoping. Every rep inside Walk Then Run is vetted by the community before they ever see your listing, so you are choosing from talent that has already earned its way in.
Partner with us and we do more than introduce you to reps. We deploy vetted 1099 sales professionals directly against your pipeline, and we handle their training and day to day management ourselves, so you get a producing sales force without building one from scratch.
- Every rep vetted by the community before activation
- We deploy reps against your pipeline, not just a listing
- We run the training and the ongoing management
- Build credibility through the Walk Then Run Score™

Why I started Walk Then Run
For the last 15 years, I have experienced both sides of the sales world. I have been the sales rep responsible for creating opportunities, building relationships, and delivering results. I have also been the leader responsible for building sales teams, developing talent, and creating systems that help people succeed.
I have seen the best of sales.
Companies that invest in their people.
Leaders who coach instead of just demand.
Sales professionals who are given the tools to win.
I have also seen the struggles.
Sales reps being handed a product, not developed, and a commission plan with little support.
Independent sellers taking risks without knowing if the opportunity is worth their time.
Companies expecting great results without building a true partnership.
That is why I started Walk Then Run.
I believe sales professionals, whether W2 or 1099, deserve access to community, resources, coaching, and opportunities that help them grow. And I believe companies deserve access to motivated salespeople who choose them because they believe in the opportunity, and can sell massively with their products and services.
The future of sales is built on alignment.
Better companies.
Better sales professionals.
Better partnerships.
