Make Great Hiring Decisions

Hire sales stallions.

One good sales person outperforms many inferior sales people. Incompetent sales people produce little if anything at all. Finding top candidates is challenging if you don't know how to identify a good response or technique. Relying on instincts often results in poor hiring decisions and costs a lot of money in salary and opportunity loss. Don't be fooled by good resumes.

Good sales people make sales happen within days or weeks.  Amateurs often produce nothing for months, and companies hold on (wishing and hoping) while time turns into months of salary, opportunity loss and a bad reputation in the field.

Successful hiring includes

• Identifying and rating the most important characteristics for your Company
• Customizing the interview to match your needs
• Knowing what to look for in answers so you can separate candidates with sales skills from the ones who look good on paper
• Evaluate and compare candidates objectively to facilitate the decision

Sales stallions outperform amateurs 3 to 1, 4 to 1... even 10 to 1
