Beyond Pre Employment Screening, Sales Aptitude Tests and Sales Personality Testing for Sales People

Sept. 27, 2009 - PRLog -- HOLLYWOOD, FL -- It takes more than just sales aptitude or a "sales personality" to close a sale. Conventional pre employment screening with a sales aptitude test may be inadequate in predicting sales potential. Testing for Total Sales Ability (TM) is the best solution. Businesses wanting to hire good sales people can now receive 10 FREE Sales Assessment Tests from Dan Joy, Inc. (http://www.danjoy.com/).

A sales hiring mistake can be costly. People sometimes tend to hire someone with whom they feel comfortable, who is like them, who looks good, or who has industry knowledge. None of that necessarily means that the person can actually sell. The JOY Tests (TM) of Total Sales Ability (TM) can help reduce subjectivity and guesswork, and help employers make more objective hiring, promotion, training or retention decisions.

An old style pre-employment sales personality test may help determine a personality type but may not measure sales ability. Or, pre employment screening based on sales aptitude alone may not take into account actual sales techniques learnt by experience.

The JOY Sales Tests (TM) go above and beyond the old sales personality tests and sales aptitude tests, by testing for Total Sales Ability (TM) instead. They test for sales prospecting ability, objection handling ability, sales closing ability, personality, psychology and much more -- a total of up to 50+ sub-competencies, traits and advanced real-world selling techniques crucial to sales success.

These potent sales assessment tests can be used to test Business Development professionals at different career levels, e.g., a Salesperson, Sales Manager, Sales Director or VP of Sales and Marketing. These accurate sales assessments can also be used for testing Manufacturer's Reps, Sales Engineers, Distributors and Franchisees.

In the past pre-employment sales assessment tests were used primarily by large companies. Now, for the first time, the affordable online sales assessment testing system of Dan Joy, Inc. has brought the ability to administer a low-cost sales assessment test within the easy reach of entrepreneurial small businesses too.  

So, how can employers tell which job applicants can sell? They can start today with 10 FREE Sales Assessment Test units (Screening Tests) at: http://www.danjoy.com/
