Justified Talent - Readiness to Hire Survey


There can be a lot of different motivators for bringing a sales professional into your business - and a lot of excitement at the thought of the difference they'll make for you. However, in our experience, a lot of small business owners end up frustrated because the promise just isn't realised...

The new sales person never quite hits the mark. Leads aren't flowing, the pipeline is patchy, deals aren't closing. Time to cut your losses and move on. In the weeks leading up to that decision - as tensions rise - and for months after, while the 'bruises' are still quite painful, it's very common for business owners to point the finger at the recently departed and failed sales person.

Yet, what we see all too often is that the business really wasn't 'sales hire ready'. There was an unstated hope that the new sales person was going to be the magic silver bullet... but they were destined to fail right from the very beginning.

We encourage you to sit this simple reflective assessment and think about the degree to which you are at the right place and have the right sales 'eco-system' in place, to ensure you get the ROI you want from a sales hire. Following this survey we'll be in touch to let you know what we think. If we think hiring a sales person could be disastrous at this point we'll let you know.

We don't want that for you.
