Louis Search Group - Sales Careers

overview

The Louis Difference

We are experts in placing sales, sales management and marketing professionals - and that's all we do. We're sales guys ourselves, so we speak the language of our clients.
We have over 20 years experience in hiring and training top-notch quality people. Whether you are looking for a new opportunity or are looking to fill a position, we have a proven record of consistently matching the right people with the right careers.

Specialists vs. Generalists
Because we've worked in the trenches and "carried a bag" ourselves, we know first hand what it takes to be a top sales performer. We're able to separate the real talent from the "wannabes."

We also realize that similarly-titled sales jobs often require different skills to achieve peak performance. We quantify the skills sets needed for success, based on our clients' particular sales cycles and selling methodologies. One company might need a "hunter" to generate new business and do lots of cold calling. Another might need a "farmer" or account manager. These two companies require very different candidates to meet their very different needs.

We work with our clients and find out how sales revenue and sales activity is generated in their particular companies. Then we match them with candidates who can do those things. That's why our hit ratios are so high. As a matter of fact, about half the time the very first person that we present gets hired!

Each member of our staff is a specialist, placing candidates only in industries they know and understand. We never "sell" companies on people, nor people on companies. We help companies find the right person and people find the right position.

Meeting your company needs!
Our goal is to create working relationships with our clients -- to meet your needs now and serve as your long-term staffing partner. To make sure the fit is perfect, we factor in the human element -- personality, behavioral tendencies, leadership qualities, resourcefulness and vision - and send you only the best and the brightest.

How Does Louis Search Group Identify Appropriate Candidates?
Its not just about filling a job order. We take the time to learn about your business, industry considerations, company culture, etc. And since we've been in sales ourselves, we know what to look for in a candidate. We know what it takes to be a top sales performer. We look at training, selling behaviors, and sales performance. We also know what the top salesperson's results should be. Once we understand your needs, we can present you with the candidate that will be the best asset to your company.

Customization
Before beginning any search, we customize a plan for your specific needs by clearly defining the ideal candidate. Then we quantify the hows, whys and whos of what you do.

This way we find people that can help you do what you do better.

We will…

Identify your requirements - Do you need a "hunter," a "farmer," or a hybrid of the two? Who do you sell to? What technical knowledge is required?


Identify Selling Methodologies - We look at sales activity, conversion rates, average sales, and total revenue statistics. We find out what a top performer needs to bring to the table.


Qualify the Success of Prior Training - i.e., Sales Training, Product Knowledge, and Technical Knowledge


Quantify and Plan for Success - How are sales generated? By cold calls, leads, networking, referrals, etc.? Or from New Business/New Clients, Repeat Business, Client Loyalty and Retention?
