Hiring Sales Representatives That Are A Perfect Fit
Kathi Graham-Leviss http://www.xbcoaching.com
Did you know that the average turnover time for salespeople is only 6 months? Why? Because most dont have the correct behavioral style to do the job effectively. That type of turnover costs your company a lot of time and money, and reduces your ability to serve your clients well.
Im sure youve experienced working with some sales representatives that are in actuality too timid to effectively make presentations. Youve also seen some who are overbearing, have poor people skills, and thus dont relate well to others in this capacity.
When looking for successful salespeople, look for those who are extremely high in Influence with a balancing style of Dominance on the DISC Behavioral Model. DISC is an indicator that qualifies individuals behavioral styles. There are four core styles. Below are just a few descriptors for the Influence and Dominance styles required of a successful sales representative.
For Influence, they are: social and verbal aggressiveness optimistic good persuaders visionaries of the big picture people-oriented team-oriented
For Dominance, they are: solving problems driving for results positive powerful and authoritative
All of these are vital characteristics for someone to excel in sales. However, such high levels of Influence also bring about some limitations in other areas such
as:
impulsiveness unrealistic in appraising people lack of attention to detail disorganized
This means that your many of your sales reps will need some sort of assistance with follow-through and organization. As team-oriented people, they almost expect that there will be someone else to take over the tasks they are not well prepared to handle.
Their behavior lends itself to new adventures, taking risks, people and freedom. Those high in Influence and Dominance will not do well with excessive rules or regulations, or in companies who tend to limit their mobility.
When interviewing to fill a sales representative position, look for those people who show a genuine love of people, who are able to build a relationship with clients, who are team oriented, who can take charge and solve client problems, and who are positive but authoritative.
These are the core behavioral aspects that will help the new hire relate to people well, become a trusted liaison between your company and the client, develop new solutions to assist customers and achieve the sales results youre looking for.
