\"SalesHow many times have you decided you needed to add sales reps to your team or make some changes and gone to your recruiting function only to find that there is no one you could hire immediately? While your company receives job applications all the time, these are usually from unemployed people who didn\u2019t cut it elsewhere or people who have never sold much of anything and naturally, you don\u2019t feel overly enthusiastic about pegging your hopes on them. Searching for great sales people, evaluating them and courting them to join your company takes time and meanwhile you sales goals that need to be met.<\/p>\n

A Sales Talent Pipeline program serves to counter these problems by proactively seeking people with the right mix of skills, experience and DNA. The program operates year round and actively searches for talent even when there are no open positions, so that new hires can be made just-in-time or as open positions are identified. Various activities will be used to find and attract the right type of sales professionals and much like a sales pipeline, the sales talent pipeline will be a funnel-list of all the potentially hireable candidates at various stages of evaluation and readiness for hire.<\/p>\n

While cost conscious companies might be weary of the extra workload of year round recruiting, the cost can be weighed against the lost opportunity of having an understaffed sales team or keeping under-performing reps on-board because there is no one available to replace them.<\/p>\n
