Our pipeline of accountable, coachable, and team oriented sales candidates across North America is absurd. We win on every front that matters: Mindset ✅ College (+) Athletes and Military Veterans are conditioned to operate in the best interest of the larger group, to work hard, and to get sh*t done. They learn in our program to not lose ANY of that when they enter the working world. Well Trained ✅ We've built teams that have far exceeded lofty goals, we know what folks need to know to be successful in their first 12 months. No Fluff. No Bullshit. Diverse ✅ This is a byproduct of our pipeline. Tell me a more diverse group of people then NCAA Athletes and the Military? Waiting... Bought In ✅ We've all hired the high intellect/great personal skills candidate because of their high potential - and we've all gotten the chat when they left the business because "sales wasnt for them". Those candidates don't make it to the end of our program, full stop. Transparent ✅ You don't have to trust us that they are well trained, you can literally watch videos of them doing the skills you're going to pay them to do BEFORE you interview them on your own time, from the comfort of your laptop. I know founders get wrapped around the axel when it comes to their babies and think, no matter what, their offering is the best in the world. And I'm no different. BUT - I've LIVED the problems we solve. I've struggled to find a new purpose after losing my identity. I've mis-hired hundreds of sales people. There is not a better solution in the world if either of those things are the problem you are trying to solve. #AllGasNoBrakes #DialedIn

Looking for a salesperson? Here are some things to look for when hiring. There is a better way! #fractionalsalesleadership #salesacceleration

Hiring a sales rep is a great topic and here is a overview from John (JD) Dean. We often see Founders, who are not experienced at hiring sales reps, look for the wrong things in an interview. Reps who do not perform well in their roles are often great at interviews - plenty of practice. Don't hire to your Hollywood vision of a sales rep - they are wrong for you. Look for the things JD mentioned in the video - business curious, ask great questions, listen, looking for next steps. Not, and I repeat, not the rep who talks the most. #founders #salesleadership #salesframework #pamice https://lnkd.in/guci7pnb
