Salespeople aren\u2019t all extroverted and enchanting. Some bring a bit of warmth to their role. These are the farmer sales types, and you\u2019ll want to look for them in your hiring process intentionally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Values that Drive Farmer Types<\/b><\/h2>\n

Farmers are typically different from your front-line salespeople. They are more customer service oriented and enjoy sales within a long-term customer relationship container. They are motivated by increasing the lifetime value of customers to the company \u2014 and increasing the company\u2019s value to the customer!<\/span><\/p>\n

Telltale Signs the Candidate You\u2019re Interviewing is a Farmer Type<\/b><\/h2>\n

When a job candidate shares past experiences of nurturing long-time relationships, there\u2019s a good chance you have a farmer type on your hands. <\/span>Farmer sales professionals aren\u2019t as aggressive as hunters<\/span><\/a> in their job search, which carries over into their work style.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can see the farmer\u2019s sales DNA coming through when a salesperson talks about how they maximized account values and brought a standard of excellence to the service their customers received. These types will also be more interested in a high base salary and lower commission.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
