It promises increased revenue and empowers you to succeed in a competitive market.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s discover how you can scale sales teams and reap the rewards.<\/p>\n<h3>Adjust the traditional hiring process<\/h3>\n<p>When scaling your sales team, the first step is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/hiring-criteria-degree-requirements\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>get good candidates<\/strong><\/a>. And fast.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the traditional hiring process should be adjusted to meet such a need. To achieve that, consider the following tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use video interviews:<\/strong> Filter out candidates that are not invested in working for the company, or don\u2019t have the language skills you need for the role. By using the power of video interviews you can gain insights on how candidates reply to your questions. For example, how vague they are, how motivated, and how they present themselves in front of a camera.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Explore employee referrals:<\/strong> Take advantage of your employee referrals on LinkedIn. Employee referrals account for 30-50% of all hires, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zippia.com\/advice\/employee-referral-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zippia.<\/a> And they can be a valuable source of new hires when scaling your sales team. Referred candidates also tend to be more committed during the interviewing process and more excited to join the company as they have an idea of the culture already.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t wait until you evaluate every candidate:<\/strong> During hiring, evaluate each candidate individually and not in comparison to others. At the end of the final interview ask yourself:<em> \u201cDo we want to work with this person, yes or no?\u201d.<\/em> It\u2019s a simple question but it will speed up the evaluation process. And mean you can make an offer straight away. This way, you\u2019ll avoid losing a good candidate to another company. Plus, you won\u2019t settle for a \u201cgood enough\u201d candidate just because you didn\u2019t find someone better.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flag good candidates even if you didn\u2019t select them:<\/strong> Don\u2019t lose track of good candidates who weren\u2019t successful. They may want to participate again in another hiring round. Or, they may be a good fit for another role.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enable internal lateral moves or promotions:<\/strong> Employees in other departments (for example, marketing or HR) may be interested in a move to sales. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/internal-mobility-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Internal moves or promotions<\/strong><\/a> can cut down the onboarding time by around 50%. So, always take internal interest into consideration.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hire for entry-level roles:<\/strong> When scaling your sales team, look for potential more than experience. Structure interview questions around candidates\u2019 motivations, career plans, and determination to work in sales. Don\u2019t overanalyze their past experience and achievements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Focus on onboarding<\/h3>\n<p>After selecting the right candidates to scale sales teams, it\u2019s essential to train them properly to ensure short time-to-productivity. Your onboarding process should look like this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Day one:<\/strong> Focus your onboarding training on HR-related tasks, like setting up hardware and other tools. Plan welcome meetings with the new hires\u2019 manager and product trainer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Next 3 days:<\/strong> Dedicate the next few days to product training and sales essentials, like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/sales-methodologies-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sales methodologies.<\/a><\/strong> Schedule onboarding training sessions with their trainer(s), then assign tasks to new hires to test their knowledge in between these training sessions. Don\u2019t forget to allocate a final assessment at the end of each training course.<\/li>\n<li><strong>End of 1st week to 2nd week:<\/strong> Role-playing can do wonders when scaling your sales team. Focusing on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/sales-soft-skills-teach-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">soft skills for sales<\/a><\/strong> can be conducted during this time. Encourage role-playing with managers and the rest of the team. New hires will have the opportunity to listen to and join calls with peers, discuss feedback on the spot, plus get familiar with processes and messaging.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fKZAS0nNRdw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Meet TalentLibrary&#x2122;<br \/>\n<\/strong>A growing collection of ready-made courses that cover the soft skills<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">your teams need for success at work<br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/library\/aff:blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15647\" src=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary_CTA.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"49\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary_CTA.png 333w, https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary_CTA-300x66.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15649\" src=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary-characters-row.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1498\" height=\"146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary-characters-row.png 1498w, https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary-characters-row-300x29.png 300w, https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary-characters-row-1024x100.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TalentLibrary-characters-row-768x75.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1498px) 100vw, 1498px\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Onboarding training tips you should consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Have a training plan in place ahead of time:<\/strong> Block time on all calendars (yours, your new hires\u2019, and anyone else\u2019s included in the onboarding process)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Record repetitive and non-interactive sessions:<\/strong> Your new hires can complete these sessions at their own pace. Plus they know what they have to do every day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make recordings shorter:<\/strong> Split lengthy recordings that address a specific topic into smaller ones. In that way, it\u2019s easier to re-record something you need to update in the future. Employees can revisit a specific bit if they need a refresher.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Get feedback:<\/strong> A month or so after the onboarding process for scaling your sales team is complete, ask your new hires for their feedback. For example, what helped them during onboarding and what can be done differently to better cater to their needs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Invest in tech and sales enablement<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s almost impossible to scale sales teams without <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/sales-training-topics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">having the right tools in place.<\/a><\/strong> Or without a well-thought-out tech and sales enablement program. A tech and sales enablement program allows you to create a repeatable and scalable process. It also means you can identify gaps in your onboarding, and make improvements the next time you hire.<\/p>\n<p>By investing in tech and sales enablement you can track what has been done and what needs to be done. You can see completions. And you can identify what needs to be reinforced early on, especially if you\u2019re onboarding multiple people at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Tech and sales enablement also <strong>helps new hires become engaged from day 1,<\/strong> as it gives them a clear timeline of their first few weeks.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Transform your sales teams, boost engagement, and drive results<br \/>\n<\/strong>Create tech and sales enablement training courses on TalentLMS.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">The training platform that users consistently rank #1.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/create\/aff:blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10550\" src=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/CTA.png\" alt=\"Create my TalentLMS forever-free account\" width=\"291\" height=\"70\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Avoid common pitfalls<\/h3>\n<p>Scaling your sales team comes with its challenges. So, how do you overcome difficulties that new hires may face during their first days at work?<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Implement a buddy system:<\/strong> Pair your new hires with members of the existing team. This way, they\u2019ll have a go-to person for simple questions. Plus, they\u2019ll have the chance to interact and socialize with peers regularly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Produce really good documentation:<\/strong> Most people need to read\/hear\/experience a process several times before they\u2019re able to follow it. So, provide clear documentation your new hires can go back to.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make time for practice:<\/strong> Incorporate practical exercises, such as role plays, tests, and self-recordings, into the onboarding process. This will give new hires the chance to apply what they\u2019ve learned. And get them up to speed faster.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Schedule daily catch-ups:<\/strong> Regular communication is crucial when scaling up your sales team. Conduct daily synchronization meetings to review progress, provide feedback, and address any questions or concerns.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>A real-life example of scaling a sales team<\/h2>\n<p>At Epignosis, we <strong>grew our sales team from zero to 16 in 9 months<\/strong> (from September 2022 to May 2023). The speed and scale of the process had its challenges. But with careful planning and a few adjustments, it was a success.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what we did to make it work:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We shortened onboarding time from three weeks to two weeks. And we focused more on roleplay and practice than reading resources or processes<\/li>\n<li>We made sure that training content was cohesive across different platforms and format courses and playbooks)<\/li>\n<li>We held team stand-ups at least twice a week, so new hires could interact with their peers as much as possible<\/li>\n<li>We encouraged knowledge sharing among peers and the exchange of experiences and tips<\/li>\n<li>We planned frequent catch-ups during the first two weeks on the job<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Never assume that everything is understood. Explore the leads of your new hires one by one. And ask them to walk you through their work. That way, you\u2019ll better understand if they\u2019ve grasped the concepts necessary to perform their job successfully.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Scaling success: Beyond the launch, into endless growth<\/h2>\n<p>Bringing your sales team together and launching them into action quickly is just the start.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To make it a success requires continuous commitment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After the initial push, the focus shifts to ongoing support and growth. So invest in regular feedback, provide ongoing training opportunities, and foster a collaborative atmosphere. Blend experienced and new members together. Celebrate milestones and address challenges. And remember to nurture a culture of learning and development.<\/p>\n<p>The result? A sales team that\u2019s ready to adapt to anything the ever-changing sales landscape has to throw at it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Picture this: Ron, the sales director of a company that produces cutting-edge productivity tools, just landed a partnership with a tech giant.
