Don't Just Hire a Salesperson. Hire the Right Sales Talent.

Sales DNA helps you look beyond experience, personality and interview performance to identify the natural strengths a candidate brings to the sales role.

4X Top performers can be approximately four times more productive than average performers.
Strength Matters Great sales performance is easier to build on natural talent than on trying to repair every weakness.
Fit the Sales Role Not every strong salesperson is naturally suited to hunting for new business.
Hire for Strength

Stop Trying to Turn Every Salesperson Into the Same Salesperson.

Some people naturally thrive on opening doors and pursuing new business. Others are stronger at developing existing relationships or managing complex opportunities.

The question isn't simply whether someone can sell. It's whether their natural strengths fit the sales job you're asking them to do.

The Principle Strong Strengths = Weak Weaknesses

Introducing Sales DNA

Look Beneath the Resume.

Our proprietary algorithm analyzes assessment data to help identify a candidate's natural sales talent.

Rather than relying only on what candidates say they can do, Sales DNA gives you another layer of information about how naturally suited they may be to the role.

Sales Isn't One Job

A Great Farmer May Not Be a Great Hunter.

Sales positions require different strengths. Someone who excels at building long-term client relationships may struggle in a role that requires relentless new-business prospecting.

That's why Sales DNA can be aligned to different types of sales work.

Sales Hunter New-business development.
Consultative Sales Needs-based solution selling.
Complex Sales Longer, more involved sales cycles.
Sales Farmer Developing existing relationships.
Why It Matters

Two Good Candidates Can Have Very Different Sales DNA.

Interviews tell you what candidates say. Assessment data can help you look deeper at how their natural tendencies fit the role.

Candidate A Strong Interview

Experienced, polished and personable — but the role requires aggressive new-business development.

Question: Does the natural talent match the job?
Candidate B Strong Sales Fit

The interview matters — but now you also have additional insight into strengths relevant to the sales role.

Better information. Better hiring decision.
