RECRUITMENT OF export sales man

To be an effective recruiter, a export sales manager must have the answer to several questions, including:
How many people do I need to recruit? Who does the recruiting? Where do I find recruits? How can I develop a qualified pool of applicants?

The following were the critical steps to every successful sales professional or recruiting professional.

A GOOD EXPORT SALESMAN SHOULD:

1. Developing the Relationship:

This is the time that the warming-up events occur before the serious selling begins. This includes how you introduce yourself and how you begin the conversation. Candidates have stated that its during the first two minutes of the call that they form crucial initial impressions that influence the rest of the recruiting process.

2. Creating/Identifying the Need: Every sale involves identifying a need that the candidate is often unaware of by asking questions. This is much more than a simple collection of data. Identifying or creating the need is the most important of all selling and recruiting skills. Recruiters who are the most effective during this investigative stage are most likely to be the highest performers. Recruiters with poor investigative skills generally create candidates who ultimately do not accept the position once offered

3. Preventing/Overcoming Objections:
Although objections are inevitable in any sales process, the key for successful sales professionals/recruiters is actually preventing objections. By asking the right types of questions in step 2, many objections that would have arisen in the process are addressed before the candidate has an opportunity to bring them forth. Keep in mind that some objections are inevitable, that they are often training responses, and that most are emotional and not practical.
