How We Do It
For many years we have used CTS Sales Profile - Can They Sell assessment tool to help determine their sales aptitude. We also use the Learning Style Survey (LSS) to determine if they can pass licensing and learn the complexities of the role. The CTS Coaching Report will help in coaching the new hire by understanding their strengths and challenges.
TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF RECRUITING
Improve your ability to identify high-performing sales professionals and sales leaders by going beyond traditional hiring methods such as resume reviews, interviews, and reference checks. Scientifically validated personality and behavioral assessments provide deeper insight into a candidate’s potential, helping reduce costly hiring mistakes that can impact productivity, retention, and agency growth.
For more than 25 years, these proven assessment tools have helped businesses make more informed and predictive hiring decisions. By incorporating behavioral profiling into the recruiting process, agencies gain greater confidence in their hiring strategy while improving team performance, sales production, and long-term retention.

Use Personality & Behavioral Assessments to Hire More Effectively
A resume and interview can only tell you so much. Personality and behavioral assessments help identify whether a candidate naturally possesses the traits, communication style, motivation, and resilience needed to succeed in a sales-driven environment — without relying on forced effort or inconsistent performance.
These insights help determine not only whether a candidate can perform key sales responsibilities, but how naturally and consistently they are likely to execute them over time.
- Assess a Candidate’s Ability To Generate Leads: Identify and pursue opportunities by building prospect lists, initiating conversations, and maintaining consistent outreach activity.
- Conduct Effective Appointments: Confidently match customer needs with the appropriate products and services while effectively presenting recommendations, handling objections, and closing business..
- Present Solutions & Close Sales: Match the needs of your customers with the services and products that you've developed for them? Present solutions, quotes, and close the sale.
- Follow Up & Retain Relationships: Maintain a strong service mindset by following through, nurturing relationships, and ensuring customers feel supported long after the sale.
By incorporating validated personality assessments into the hiring process, agencies can make more predictive hiring decisions, improve team performance, reduce costly turnover, and build stronger long-term sales teams.
