Sales and Marketing Recruitment
Information Regarding our Sales RecruitmentThe KAS Placement family of Dallas recruiting firms staffs sales employees of all levels. Successful recruitment of sales experts are very hard to come by and, if good, are worth their weight in gold. Our headhunters look for certain, very specific traits when staffing a business development professional.
Upon first glance of a resume, we initially look for someone who has sold similar products or services to that of our client, has had a past success meeting and exceeding quotas (this includes numbers and, occasionally percentages), has sold into the industry vertical which our client is currently trying to break into, has a track record of staying at employers for an extended period of time has good resume formatting and markets him or herself as a true salesman or saleswoman.
When interviewing a new business acquisition specialist, our Dallas recruiting firms want to see a confident person who has done a vast amount of research on the suite of products or services our client offers, has good experience prospecting for new business whether this be via cold calling, email campaigns with prompt phone follow-ups or getting in touch with contacts who can put this potential sales job applicant in touch with major decision makers.
Our recruitment teams additionally gauge whether or not we believe this person would be good at dealing with high level executives – mainly CEOs, CTOs, CFOs and COOs. Our Dallas recruiting firms gauge this by how well spoken and sharp the sales applicant is, their educational background as well as a history of selling large volumes of either products or services, thus leading us to believe that he or she has sat in front of high-up corporate decision makers.
Information Regarding our Marketing Recruitment
Similar to other offices, KAS Placement has expanded its Dallas recruiting firms to have fully dedicated marketing divisions. Due to an increased need for staffing online media, print, television and radio marketing experts, KAS Placement has dedicated some of its Dallas sales recruiters have shifted to focusing on the placement of online marketing experts. Though we are able to do any type of marketing placement, to meet a recent heavy market demand, our recruitment team in Dallas has shifted our main expertise to online marketing.
All of the KAS staffing agents have been thoroughly trained on the main facets of online marketing. This includes a strong understanding of social media which includes such things as Twitter, blogging and SEO work. Every staffing agent at KAS does our online internal marketing and contributes both fresh, relevant content to our blog, our website pages and our SEO pages on a daily basis. Upon receiving a marketing mandate from a client, our Dallas recruiters gather resumes and then begin an extensive interview process. When it comes to online marketing, our recruiters need to know that our job applicants are more of a fit than the resumes coming from other Dallas recruiting firms.
What we initially look for is a strong knowledge of the aforementioned facets which make up what is now widely known as online marketing and advertisement. However, to accomplish a goal as ambitious as SEO, the job applicant has to be a very good, interesting writer. Today, some of the best ways to get business is through a blog following. However, to do this properly, the blog needs to be expertly maintained and consistently updated. Online promotion through social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook can also be highly effective when trying to drive more traffic to a business website and building a good online.
One of the most important aspects of this process is Link Building. Getting people to link to your site is the most difficult part of SEO and social media. As stated above, the first way to do this is to get outsiders interested in your blog. In addition, it takes cold calling and email blasts which our Dallas recruiting firms know takes a certain amount of persistence and creative thinking. Today, a lot of people charge for links, but with a good amount of work, obtaining free, relevant links with anchor text is possible. In the end, this process is no different than a sales representative cold calling for a new customer.
A strong understanding of SEO is essential to successful online marketing. SEO is a constant competition to see who can get to the top of Google lists. To be truly good at this online marketing art, a marketing professional must update the website in which they are working with on a frequent basis which is filled with interesting, industry pertinent information. Not only will this rank your firm higher in Google searches, it will keep people coming back to your site. Combined with a good sales team, these marketing techniques are necessary to grow your firm and incoming business. The KAS Dallas Recruiting Firms truly believe that having a great marketing team that is able to work in conjunction with the sales team makes us stronger and more successful.

Typically, a recruitment client or sales / marketing applicant can get a quick response from one of our staffing specialists nearly fifteen hours a day, six days a week.
A lot of people ask why our Dallas executive headhunters simply focus on sales and marketing job staffing. Our placement staffing agents who are stationed around the country, are experts in the executive recruitment of both sales and marketing experts. While some staffing agencies will accept any assignment, whether it be accounting, finance, human resources, etc., the KAS Placement Dallas recruiting firms are strictly dedicated to the two aforementioned disciplines of recruitment.
Occasionally, for long-standing clients whose businesses we know inside and out, KAS will perform an accounting, administrative search, and though we do it very successfully, our team would mostly prefer to remain in sales and marketing executive searches. Our number one purpose as a Dallas recruiting firm is to place salespeople both in Texas and around the nation. Our staffing team is one of the best group of Sales recruiters in the entire U.S.

Advice for Younger Sales Representatives
Although our staffing agencies in Dallas mostly work with higher level sales and marketing professionals, we will occasionally help an existing client fill an open slot for a recent college graduate or an employee with less than three years experience. Our Dallas recruiting firms suggest that if you are a younger professional looking to make a career in sales, there are some aspects of business development you ought to know.
First, business development comes with a lot of rejection and only those who can handle this constant denial from others will succeed in the business. However, the amount of rejection one will get is also contingent on the type of firm with whom you are currently working with. For instance, if you are working with, for example, IBM, many large firms will respect the name of the company and thus will make it easier to close a deal. So, why not just work for a large, publicly traded company? Our Dallas recruiting firms can tell you why.
Big firms are great for some sales and marketing professionals, but prove to be not as much as a challenge as working for a smaller organization. Also, when selling a particular product or service for a small organization, our Dallas recruiting firms see a spike in base salary. Sales employers know they have to pay more and usually do. The reason for this increase is that only a select few (the best of the best) can successfully sell products which, in comparison, are smaller and much more difficult to bring to market. This will bring us back to the basic supply and demand economic theory. The only other aspects that will shy sales professionals away from large organizations is the fact that obtaining promotions can take years. Our executive sales recruiters understand that this is mostly not true when working for a smaller, more personalized organization. KAS Placement has had success doing sales recruiting for both.
