Our Technology Sales Recruiters
KAS Placement is a sales and marketing recruiting firm specializing in staffing executive and senior level employment applicants. Started in 2004, KAS Placement has remained dedicated to staffing sales and marketing positions. While there are many sales recruiting agencies which will recruit for any industry, we prefer to remain specialists in our field. The main reason our technology sales recruiters focus on business development is due to the fact that we are very versed in all types of account executive placements. This includes new business hunters, dedicated account managers, channel sales specialists, sales managers, executive level sales employees, inside sales representatives, outside sales representatives, sales engineers and more. The three technology mediums in which our software sales recruiters staff are in software, hardware and business process outsourcing.The clientele of our technology sales recruiters consist of both existing recruitment clients and new companies seeking to hire a technology sales representative. Upon receiving a new job requisite, our software sales recruiters commence a methodical process which has proven to work time after time. More often than not, our sales recruiting agencies end up closing the deal in a timely and effective manner.
In addition to working with large, publicly traded companies, our software sales recruiters also staff account executives and marketing professionals in smaller companies. Our staffing agency works both on contingency and retained headhunting agreements and recruits job applicants throughout the United States and Canada.
A Brief Look at Some of Many Methods Which We Use to Find Good Applicants
Upon staffing a new employee, there are several key characteristics of a job seeker that our technology sales recruiters look for.
Resume Clarity: This is the quickest way in which our sales staffing agency weeds out resumes. If a job applicant did not take the time to make their resume look professional, then they are probably not the most organized or detail oriented individual.
Employment Stability: Our software sales recruiters need to see that the job applicant has remained at their past and current position for prolonged time periods. This is quite important to our sales recruiting agency as we don't want to present an employment seeker to a client who ends up staying only a year or two. Our staffing professionals actively recruit job applicants who will be an asset to their firm for years to come.
Quotas: When it comes to sales quotas our software sales recruiters look for a few aspects of an employment seeker's sales numbers. First, our sales recruiters like to see individuals who have consistently beat their numbers and have past tax forms to prove it. Additionally, our sales recruiting agency likes to match the quotas of the individual to that of the prospective company. For instance, let's assume that a client has an average sale of their product or service which amounts to $50,000. Also, their sales representatives have annual quotas of 2 million. More likely than not, a job seeker who has had quotas of $100,000 will not be a great fit. There are, however, exceptions to this rule.
Selling into the Client's Target Market: It is very rare that a client will come to our recruitment company and not want a sales applicant who has experience selling into their target market. For example, sales professionals who have sold into financial companies will come with contacts and experience managing a typical sales cycle when selling into these organizations. This is not to mention that the sales representative will be knowledgeable about the industry.
Working For Large Technology Companies and Small Firms
Software is a relatively open field that many companies can break into. As a matter of fact, they don't even have to have their own software, they can be a VAR (value added reseller). Additionally, there are so many different types of software on the market that a start-up company can choose a few that they believe are marketable to target clients. Working for a small company can be quite fun. Primarily, this is due to the fact that everyone gets to take on multiple responsibilities instead of just being a "sales representative." Also, direct access to the CEO allows the employees to find new methods of working successfully and share his or her ideas with those higher up in the company.
However, any software sales recruiter will tell you that working for a small company comes with a risk. From the experience of our technology sales recruiters, many of the more effective business development and marketing job seekers who are on the open market, come from a small business which either acquired by a larger company, went out of business or had their venture capital money pulled from the organization. More often than not, these are the end results of the smaller companies. If you are an employee who is only looking at small companies, that is fine. Keep in mind, however, that if past firms which you have worked for have had to lay off their staff, your resume becomes less appealing. Typically, clients of technology sales recruiters won't consider sales professionals who have bounced around.
