"Recruiting has the highest impact
on revenue.
Excellent recruiting practices contribute
more than 3.5X the
revenue growth and 2X the profit
margins."
-Boston Consulting Group
When it comes to hiring salespeople, knowing is always better than guessing!
We know with precision, what the top 20% of the best salespeople share in common, and also, have mastered how to measure these qualities. They are intangibles...invisible to the naked eye, both unteachable and unlearnable. Things like persistence, drive, resilience, handling rejection, forging deep emotional connections and countless others.
Utilizing a time-tested, scientifically proven process consistently quadruples our clients hiring success rate from 20% to potentially 80% and higher.
To learn why we are so supremely confident in our services and why we offer a one-year, unconditional replacement guarantee (4X the industry standard) on all our hires, please watch the short video above or better yet, schedule a time to collaborate with our Founder & CEO, John Pyke. You will never look at sales recruiting and sales performance the same way.
“We experienced our highest sales growth in four years in a severe recession. This unprecedented achievement was featured on national television - CBS Evening News! John also eliminated our 50% sales turnover using his assessments. Our ROI was off the charts!”
"John delivered an incredible, four-hour sales training to kick off our National Sales Meeting. We achieved the highest sales revenue in our 40+ year company history that year. John evaluated my sales team and blew my mind by identifying with 100% accuracy, the top 20% of our salespeople. The 20% who generated 80% of our total sales revenue over the last four years. Amazingly, John did this with an online assessment without even meeting them. John also helped us hire all our new salespeople and eliminated our costly, frustrating sales turnover, saving us millions of dollars. I highly recommend John!"
"John elevated our Branch Manager's self-awareness and sales effectiveness with assessments and his entertaining, high-impact, two-hour sales training. We achieved our highest quarterly sales growth in four years immediately after his training. I highly recommend John!"
“Owning and running a business in Alaska can be challenging, especially with finding, hiring, and retaining top talent. John has helped us set up this system for our company and it has been a game changer. His insight and mentorship have provided us guidance and leverage in an area where having an expert giving you advice is priceless. If human capital is your company’s #1 asset like we believe ours to be, hire John and his team immediately and get your onboarding process ready!”
"As a result of hiring two, consecutive ineffective leaders to manage a very large municipal wastewater facility, we were in severe jeopardy of the account going to our competition. John helped us salvage the $40M account - I highly recommend him!
John facilitated a two-day, offsite strategy session with our team and the client to identify all the grievances and created precise solutions using the Six Thinking Hats methodology to restore our broken relationship. They are now a delighted, long-term client again. "
We used Six Thinking Hats for the Product Creation and Product Launch of the “Accompli,” an ultra, high-tech handheld communication device at a competitive price. Day 1 was for Product Managers to get a detailed understanding of the target market and consumer traits including age, income, educational background, cultural beliefs and daily habits.
Day 2 was a “technology soak” including how consumers would use the device from the time they woke up to the time they went to bed. A dissection of the consumer’s day hour by hour was facilitated to ensure the “Accompli” was the ideal product for the target market. We successfully introduced the Motorola “Accompli” in North America, Europe and Asia.
"With John's help, I started three new companies, grew a team of 75+ people, and quadrupled my revenue in 8 years to over $215M. John's expertise is a priceless asset to our company."
“John eliminates the costly, frustrating guesswork associated with hiring and helps us consistently hire top performers. With his help, we have grown from one office to seven offices. In 2014 and 2015 we sold 378 and 555 sides respectively. Last year we were ranked by The Wall Street Journal Real Trends in the Top 10 Real Estate firms in the United States. This year we are on track to sell over 1750 homes. John’s time-tested, scientifically proven hiring system delivers unmatched results - I highly recommend him! ”
“John helped me grow from solo agent to 7th level in three years. John’s “Done For You Hiring System” is the best investment I have made in my real estate business. He has helped me create true leverage by building a team that is now over 30 people strong in just 1 year and growing and he has significantly improved the quality of my life – I highly recommend John!”
"John Pyke is my secret weapon! John’s services are invaluable in assessing agents and deciding where my time and efforts will be best spent. Consistently hiring the best people is unquestionably the single most important ingredient for success – the smaller the team the more important it is to have the best talent. John takes care of all my human capital needs. I am so appreciative of his expertise and would not want to face a single year without him!”
“Thank you John! You have attracted hundreds of applicants and narrowed down the list to the best fit for our team. Your proven hiring process has saved us tons of time, money and frustration. You accurately predict who will be a mediocre performer and who will be a superstar! We no longer interview the wrong people or make costly hiring mistakes. We wish we would have found you years ago. You have been an amazing addition to our team!”
“We have worked with John for many years. He is like a trusted member of our team and his value far exceeds the investment. Prior to using his services, we made many costly mistakes in our hiring practices. His advice has been instrumental in our growth from a few people to a large team of 26. We even consult with John when we are contemplating promotions or altering a teammate’s responsibilities. He can help us promote strategically and make sure we are using everyone’s talents to the fullest. ”
“John has an amazing system for finding great talent for our organization! With his help, we are much better able to make sure that we place the right people in the right positions to help our business grow so that we, in turn, can better serve our community – I wholeheartedly recommend John!”
“John Pyke and his ability to find us the most qualified candidates has been nothing short of amazing for our business. With John’s knowledge and insight, we have grown from a team of 5 to a team of 11 in just 12 months. One of our new hires sold $18.46M in his first year with us – I highly recommend John!”
