Posted by Jim Keenan on Mon, Jul 23, 2012 @ 12:06 PM

We just launched our new eBook: How to Hire "A" players. 

Making your number or "winning" in sales starts with getting the best people. Like a sports team, the best sales team has the best sales people on the field. 

Too often I hear sales leaders lament over their inability to pick the right sales people. They complain that sales people are too good at selling themselves. Confused and frustrated the sales leader ultimately makes a bad hire. This is NOT an uncommon challenge for many sales organizations, but one that needs to be avoided. 

Hiring great sales talent is a skill of the best sales leaders. Developing the skill and a repetable hiring process increases the chances of making your number and increasing sales. 

The How to Hire "A" players will help you build a process to ensure you are hiring "A" players. 

If you suffer from the following, this eBook is for you: 

  • -Suffer from the 80/20 rule. (80% of your sales is coming from 20% of your sales people)
  • -Wish all the other sales people were like “Jennifer and Ken, your top performers
  • -Don’t have a defined, documented process for hiring sales people
  • -Haven’t had the best luck hiring “A” players
