New-business ability cannot be assumed
Some candidates inherit strong accounts.
Others create them.
There is a big difference.
When you need growth, we look closely at how somebody has generated business.
We assess:
- Accounts personally won
- Pipeline personally created
- New clients opened
- Relationships developed
- Revenue generated
- Average deal value
- Sales cycle
- Target achievement
- Commercial network
We approach people who are not applying
Some of the strongest media and agency salespeople are happy where they are.
They have accounts.
They have relationships.
They are earning well.
They are unlikely to answer an advertisement.
A targeted headhunting campaign gives you access to that part of the market.
