Companies are feverishly hiring. Sales companies are ready to ramp back up to pre-pandemic operations. But the problem is, so is everyone else. There is serious competition to hire the best of the best. Sales professionals know this and are looking to leverage this situation in their favor. They have options and they are planning to explore them.
You need to get out in front of the hiring frenzy to ensure you fill the available positions in your company. To do this, you need to first take care of your own, and then take steps to fill your talent gaps.
If you take care of the people you already have, you will lessen the odds of them looking elsewhere. It’s no secret that competing companies are actively looking to poach your top sales professionals. So, make sure your people are engaged, challenged, and content with their current role or you could find yourself having to hire more people to replace the people you lose.
If you want to stand out among the crowd of sales companies looking to snap up the top salespeople, you need to incentivize them to choose you. Here are some ways you can get an advantage and find that needle in a haystack:
