Increase Sales Performance
As a business owner or sales manager, you know that having weak or mediocre salespeople can be disastrous for an organization. High performing sales teams ensure that their salespeople have the right attributes and skills to be successful in their role.
Using a combination of individual assessment insights along with customized training workshops, we help organizations increase the productivity and effectiveness of their sales and service teams and build a high performing sales culture.

Hire the Right Salespeople
A critical starting point before embarking on a development plan is to consider if the individual has what it takes to be a salesperson:
Sales Assessment Process
Profile XT
Assesses for Job Fit against a customized performance model (benchmark) for a specific role based on the candidate’s cognitive abilities, behavioural tendencies and interests.

A suite of reports is provided that support all facets of the employee life cycle from hiring through to performance management, sales development and succession planning.

They focus on an individual’s approach to 8 critical sales practices (prospecting, self-starting, initiating contact, resourcefulness, building & maintaining relationships, coachability, closing the sale and working with a team), helping you gain insight and confidence in hiring the right salespeople.
