Choosing a Sales Assessment Tool -- the Best Way to Build a Sales Team With Sales Assessment Tools

How can an employer tell if a job applicant can sell? A good sales assessment tool can help employers know! This article explains how to choose a good sales assessment tool to help you hire good sales people, hire a good sales manager or VP of Sales and Marketing, build a good sales team, and receive 10 free Sales Assessments Tests.

 

EEOC Guidelines:

 

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) guidelines suggest that if you use a sales assessment tool (assessment test), the same test must be administered to all of the applicants. The assessment should be administered to all applicants at the same point in the selection process.

 

Hiring Mistakes:

 

A hiring mistake can cost an employer up to $100,000 or more. Many employers are deluged with sales resumes, but have no way of knowing who can really sell. So, they often tend to hire someone with whom they "feel comfortable", who is "like them", who "looks good", or has "industry knowledge". None of that necessarily means that the person can actually sell.

 

Solution:

 

The JOY Tests (tm) of Total Sales Ability (tm) can help reduce subjectivity and guesswork, and help employers make more objective hiring decisions. According to Dan Joy, the inventor of these potent online sales assessment tools, "The JOY Tests (tm) go above and beyond the regular psychological / personality tests by testing for Total Sales Ability (tm) -- the actual street smarts of Professional Selling. They test for Sales Prospecting Ability, Objection Handling Ability, Sales Closing Ability, Personality, Psychology and more, and are much better than just regular psychometric tests".

 

The company donates at least Twenty Percent (20%) of its online sales testing revenue to help blind kids, orphans and children in need, as well as to support other good social, community and humanitarian causes, and medical research.

 

Who Can Use Sales Assessment Testing:

 

In the past, sales assessment tools were used primarily by large companies. Now, for the first time, the fully integrated self-serve online sales assessment testing system of Dan Joy, Inc., has brought these crucial sales assessment tools within the easy reach of small to mid-sized businesses. Of course, big companies can use these sales assessment tools too. Dan Joy, Inc., also offers easy integration of its accurate sales assessment tools with corporate resume databases, job boards and employment websites.
