Every work day you wake up early, grit your teeth, then travel toward your office with one name in mind, Tom - one salesperson in particular that you just don't want to continue to face off for the truth, someone who seems to "know-it-all" and isn't performing but always has a "good" reason for low activity and poor sales numbers. Tom has an...

about Recruiting
A reputation can be a good thing…if you have one for being the life of the party.
It’s not so good when it’s for stretching the truth. In fact, it can be a future sales destroyer.
That’s why if you hire people without integrity, you’re going to want to listen up.
While insincere employees may not seem like a big deal, it can be...

about Recruiting
Where do you find people who can sell - who can sell what you sell and in a way that people buy again and again? The number one frustration we hear from recruiting professionals is, “I can’t find enough people! Or, where do I find enough good people - people who can sell?”
Thousands of young sales leaders, managers, insurance agents and...

about Coaching
We stumble - imperfect and unrefined people - as runners, sales reps, fathers and mothers. And life is tough - being successful is difficult. Obstacles face us from the inside - our attitudes, skills and feelings, and from the outside - what the world throws at us and the people in it.
The best of us have experienced the “refiner’s...

I watched as a father walked his son from the baseball field to the car. The game had ended but the scolding continued. While play was underway, he had tongue-lashed his son for swinging, watching pitches and for hitting balls to the “wrong” places.
Perfection covered the field of play and unseen land mines were everywhere ready to explode...

You hide under a counter with your teacher. Someone shoots some of your friends in another part of the school. You are so scared and afterwards you will never forget. In the outside world, people lose their jobs and terrorists drive trucks through crowds of people walking to a live concert. Anxiety travels with you as your move toward...

about Recruiting
A proverb sometimes hits you in the gut. Like this one,
“As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.”
But some people just don’t know what they don’t know and they keep repeating the same mistake over and over. They ask ‘pet’ questions, ones they like, without structuring interviews to look for the character,...

about Coaching
When you decide to take your family on vacation, does it matter what they think about the location? If you coach golf and you have a new student, on the first instruction day is it important to watch a person swing before you begin teaching a lesson? Does it help to know your student’s objectives so you can customize their approach to the...

In baseball, people who love the technical parts of the sport obsess over numbers like on-base percentages, slugging percentages, batting average, strike out ratios, etc., and that’s just a few. Business owners and Chief Operating Officers, especially in companies with a lot of products and market segments find themselves slicing up the pie...

about Coaching
Have you ever employed someone with character faults? Of course you have because no one’s perfect. Right? But what do you do when you make a mistake and hire someone who is dishonest, lazy, irresponsible or selfish as a sales rep? What do you do when you absorb the financial impact of their actions? That depends.
Think of your coaching as...

Does recruiting character matter? It depends. This was on the Wall Street Journal’s front page today:
“Highflying Medical Firm Falls to the Earth, Its Sales Questioned!”
Court documents and employee complaints and interviews “paint a picture of a company seeking to grow at almost any cost.” An interim CEO with experience running...

Here at Sales Manage Solutions we tell people that it is very dangerous to hire people on "gut" feelings.
Oh sure, we do our screening and we ask for the references. We feel we are pretty tough on interview questions. But still we can end up hiring someone on a "hunch" or just because we like them or because they sell us first. Let's...

People are different - their brains work differently. Some are mechanical engineers like my oldest son. Others find they have a great compassion for nursing, or carpentry or financial management. There are also a multitude of character, attitude and motivational factors that make a difference in a person’s effectiveness in a work position.

When I was very young and still an only child, I remember my first Christmas. Everything was beautiful - the decorated tree, the lights and the gift-wrapped presents. It seemed to me that I had been given so many gifts that they lined a wall and went up the steps. After quickly moving through them and tearing apart the packaging, leaving...
