Case Study: TEKsystems ramps new sellers 6x faster with Degreed Maestro AI roleplays

TEKsystems ramps new sellers 6x faster with Degreed

TEKsystems, a global technology and business services company, faced a significant challenge in onboarding its large number of new sales development representatives. The process of preparing them for complex enterprise deals was slow, historically taking 36 to 40 months to land a first services meeting, and relied heavily on overburdened sales leaders for coaching. To address this, they partnered with vendor Degreed to implement its Maestro AI roleplay solution.

By embedding Degreed Maestro's focused AI practice simulations into their onboarding program, TEKsystems provided new sellers with a safe space to build skills and confidence. This solution led to dramatic results: 25% of the pilot cohort landed a services meeting within six months, a milestone previously unachieved, representing a 6x faster ramp time. The measurable success from Degreed has prompted TEKsystems to expand the use of Maestro across other roles within the organization.
