Frequently asked questions.

UK Sales Association® (UKSA) is a professional community and resource hub for people who help businesses grow. We connect sales, business development, marketing, account management, customer success, product and commercial professionals with people, training, tools and career support. Our shared direction is Build | Belong | Become.

UKSA is for sales and commercial professionals at every career stage, including business development, account management, marketing and growth, product marketing, customer success, partnerships, revenue operations and senior leadership. Employers, training providers and relevant suppliers can participate through separate business services.

Professional Membership costs £129 per year. It provides an individual route into UKSA professional support, development, member connections and eligible member services. Compare the current benefits before joining.

Yes. An employer can fund individual Professional Membership or purchase a Business Membership package to provide seats to a wider team.

Visit the Join Us page to compare the current membership, recognition, provider, affiliate and partnership routes.

Yes. UKSA offers a free Young People in Sales route for eligible 18–24-year-olds to support early career development and practical commercial skills.

Business Membership allows organisations to buy membership seats for their commercial teams under a single annual business package. Packages are available from five seats, with larger team options and the benefits shown on the Business Membership page.

The organisation owns the seats and assigns each active seat to a named employee. If someone leaves or the team changes, the organisation can reassign the seat.

Annual Business Membership packages: 5 seats £715; 10 £1,355; 15 £1,915; 20 £2,395; 25 £2,795; 30 £3,195; 50 £4,795; 75 £6,395; 100 £7,995; and 150 £11,195. Choose the number of seats that fits your team.

Yes. An eligible new Business Membership sale can generate 20% commission on the qualifying first purchase through an attributed referral. The rate and applicable conditions are explained on the Affiliate Programme page.

The current 30-day job advertising packages are £49 for one job, £199 for up to five, and £349 for up to ten. Jobs are listed on UKSA and Migrato.io; eligible active paid adverts are intended to receive additional in-app exposure after The Lonely Sales Club® launches, planned Q1 2027.

Professional and Fellow Members can contact UKSA about their eligible job-advertising discount. The discount is not shown as a fixed percentage on the public jobs board.

Founding Fellowship is a peer-reviewed professional recognition for experienced sales and commercial leaders. The annual Fellowship fee is £249, and acceptance depends on the assessment process rather than payment alone.

No. Candidates are considered through a peer-review process; payment alone does not confer Fellowship. Founding Fellowship has its own annual fee of £249 once approved.

Eligible professionals between permanent roles can access a free UKSA Job Seeker Membership route for six months, subject to the current eligibility criteria. Career support and discovery services are also available across UKSA and Migrato.

You can move to UKSA Professional Membership if you want to continue with the wider membership, community and professional benefits.

Visit the UKSA Latest Jobs board for professional roles in sales, business development, account management, marketing, product, customer success and revenue functions, including roles in the UK and USA. Applications take place through employers’ own pages.

The UKSA Affiliate Programme allows individuals and organisations to earn commission by introducing new customers to eligible UKSA products and services through a tracked referral route.

Joining the UKSA Affiliate Programme is free. You do not need to purchase UKSA membership to be eligible for the standard first-sale referral commission.

The current standard commission is 20% on eligible first purchases. For example, a £129 Professional Membership generates £25.80; a £1,355 ten-seat Business Membership generates £271; and a £5,995 annual Business Partnership generates £1,199. These examples assume a qualifying, attributed sale, not guaranteed earnings.

The current first-sale commission is 20%, not 25%. Qualifying products include Professional Membership, Founding Fellowship, Business Membership, annual Business Partnership, training and supplier listings, eligible training partnerships and job-advertising packages. See the Affiliate Programme for the product schedule and conditions.

An affiliate who maintains qualifying UKSA Professional Membership may be eligible for 10% commission on qualifying referred annual renewals, subject to the Affiliate Programme rules and attribution conditions. Recurring commissions are not guaranteed.

Yes, if the referred purchase qualifies under the Affiliate Programme. The 20% initial commission on a £5,995 annual Business Partnership is £1,199.

A Training Directory listing is currently presented at £299 per year in the updated commercial pricing catalogue. Enhanced Course Assessment and Training Partnership are separate services.

UKSA Enhanced is a substantive peer-review process for an individual course. The current assessment fee is £595 per course. Paying starts the assessment process but does not guarantee approval.

Training Partnership starts at £1,500 per year and offers a deeper relationship for relevant training businesses, including the benefits stated on its current product page. Course assessment and recognition are distinct from simply purchasing advertising.

Yes. The current annual Business Partnership is £5,995 and is designed for relevant businesses seeking visibility and introductions across the UKSA ecosystem. The proposition includes UKSA and Migrato, with The Lonely Sales Club® app as a planned additional channel after its Q1 2027 launch. Contact UKSA for available placements and agreed terms.

The annual £5,995 Business Partnership is a commercial visibility package for suitable training, technology and service providers. It is distinct from Business Membership seats. Ask UKSA for the current schedule of advertising placements across UKSA and Migrato, plus proposed app exposure after launch.

The Lonely Sales Club® is being developed as an on-demand mentoring, guidance and professional connection app for sales and wider commercial professionals. The planned launch is Q1 2027. It is not currently a live app service, and mentoring matches are not guaranteed.

Sales Walks® are part of UKSA’s earlier face-to-face community heritage: informal walking conversations built around openness and useful connections. The future direction of The Lonely Sales Club® is the planned mentoring and professional connections app.

Behind the Close® is also the name of the UKSA magazine, sharing commercial experience and perspectives. The name has previously been used for confidential peer conversations; check the specific programme or publication for its format.

The UKSA Member Workspace is the private digital environment containing member tools and AI-assisted resources designed around practical commercial work. Access depends on the relevant UKSA relationship or membership route.

Migrato.io is UKSA’s connected talent and recruitment platform, supporting job visibility and employers seeking commercial candidates. Employers can also advertise relevant jobs through UKSA’s jobs board.

Not yet. The planned public launch is Q1 2027. The app is being developed for professional mentoring and connections, with matching and messaging envisaged. Features and launch timing may change.
