The sales team is the backbone of your operation. But hiring SaaS sales professionals can be a delicate process.

In this ebook, Skaled Consulting and Betts Recruiting collaborate to provide strategies and best practices to minimize the time your company spends with open headcounts and inefficient onboarding.

In three important steps, we will walk you through candidate profiling, interviews, and onboarding.

The cost of delayed time-to-hire and ramp due to poor organizational alignment is substantial.

Calculate the cost of unfilled sales headcounts within your organization and the impact on revenue when ramp time is slower than it should be.

It helps to see the impact of unfilled headcount and slow ramp when you can put it in your own numbers. Use this formula to forecast the cost of unfilled sales headcount when it takes an extra month or two to hire the right sales rep or manager.

“We were looking for [a sales leader] who could learn quickly and could take charge of a team. It was very important that they had built, or been a part of, a team that had grown from a small group of salespeople into a team of many.”

“Account Executives need to be able to take constructive feedback, learn from that, and take it to whatever the task is.”

Stop losing revenue on unfilled sales headcount.

Competition is fierce, and every day you go without a sales development representative, account executive, or sales manager, you’re losing money.
