About SALESTALENT
SALESTALENT is a national sales recruiting firm delivering proven sales talent with sales playbooks to drive new sales.
Business Leaders
During the last 20 years our companies have met with over 2,500 business leaders from many different industries. Along the way we have found that the majority of these entrepreneurs launched their businesses with a good idea and the passion to succeed. Many also started with very little money but they persisted and won.
The Right Answers
New ideas and innovation are started by asking the “right” questions and then listening to find better ways to do a better job. We have learned that the questions are really the answers in helping small businesses grow. We believe we know what the right questions are…to get to the right answers for your business success.
Adversity
Many owners of small businesses have experienced numerous setbacks in launching their businesses. Through passion and perseverance, they overcame adversity and learned it is not about how many times you get hit … it’s about how many times you get back up that really counts.
Your Success
Your business success is really not about how much money you spend on increasing sales. It’s about making the right decision by hiring proven sales professionals and then providing a solid sales track for them to run on. SALESTALENT can help you with both.
