Mike Hudgins, VP of Sales

Mighty Auto Parts

“We used a sales test for years that was never updated and the results did not correlate to the candidates’ performance in the field. So, we began looking for a test that was more up-to-date, and tested purely salespeople, their ability to sell and be a “Hunter”. I found SalesDrive online and was intrigued by the detail and categories they measure with the DriveTest®. I watched their video and afterwards decided to test my sales team. Many came back as farmers, two came back as Hunter, which shows how rare and valuable Hunters are to the sales world. I now encourage our business partners (franchisees) to have their teams take the test, as well as any new hires to make sure that they have the right mix of Farmers and Hunters on their teams. The SalesDrive Test is a great way to aid in the hiring process and evaluate your team. It reinforces what you may have known all along, and thus will help you build a better team.”

Debra Varacalli, HR Manager

“Using SalesDrive as a tool, during the hiring process, has helped us spot Driven, goal-oriented people that are in it for the marathon and not the sprint”

Jay Driftmyer, HR Generalist

Master Chemical

“The SalesDrive Assessment tool is an invaluable recruitment and selection tool that we use for our global sales team and has proven year after year a consistent data tool that aids our process tremendously. Dr. Chris and his team have developed a validated testing tool that is easy to use and processes results for our hiring managers to make well informed decisions.”

Jeffrey Clair, EVP-Global Sales

Bollman Hat Company

“SalesDrive has very quickly helped us better understand the client’s capabilities and potential success in different sales positions. This test has been critical to us in looking for the elusive sales hunter. To those we have hired, the results of the test closely match to the subsequent performance.”

Ron Davidson, Dealer Development

Ram Jack Systems

“The DriveTest® is a critical element of the sales recruiting process for our franchisees, and dealers. It lets them size up a candidate quickly, and interview only those with a high potential for success.”

Shawn Richardson, Director of Organizational Development, Training and HR

TranSystems

“At TranSystems’ we were able to use the DriveTest® to develop a custom profile for the Engineering and Professional Services Industry. Since our sales professionals are expected by most clients to also be an expert in an aspect of Engineering, finding that quintessential high-Drive sales professional is rare. The DriveTest® allows us to see if they fulfill a minimum requirement based on an internal standard we have benchmarked.”

John Logan, Executive Vice President

Qvinci Software

“Qvinci Software is a high-growth SaaS company. It is challenging to identify high potential sales professionals who can effectively communicate with both technical and financial buyers. [The] DriveTest® has proven to greatly increase our ability to select the right candidates, avoiding the lost opportunity cost associated with hiring those who don’t produce to expectations. I highly recommend DriveTest® as a powerful hiring resource.”

“The SalesDrive test has helped us to identify what type of sales person we are interviewing and in the case of one person we hired, it confirmed that they would be better fit for the account manager role (farmer). It is a nice tool to help identify how we should proceed in hiring for a position.”

“Since partnering with SalesDrive, it has unified our metrics and standards in our recruiting process across our national footprint. The DriveTest® allows our training team to execute with a higher level of performance because the DriveTest® allows us to choose candidates with the unteachable characteristics, and that is Drive. In fact, our new hires outperform veteran reps, consistently quarter after quarter and we attribute a portion of that to hiring the candidates that have something inside of them that can’t be trained, and that is Drive.”

“I read the book: Never Hire a Bad Salesperson Again by Dr. Chris Croner after having it recommended to me by a successful business owner with over 1500 employees. It was so good that I personally reached out to Dr. Croner to ask more questions. Hiring is a skill and I was never formally trained on how to effectively qualify top salespeople. I can tell you that I averted thousands of dollars in lost resources by not hiring specific sales candidates through the use of the DriveTest® tool.”

PERL Mortgage, Inc.

“I had always used intuition and emotional intelligence to vet out great salespeople and after a handful of ultra-mega successful business people in a coaching program recommended the book “Never Hire a Bad Salesperson Again” By Dr. Chris Croner, I was blown away. I immediately began to build the skills around interviewing, indirectly and directly, with potential salespeople to make much better hiring decisions. Coupling that with that actual DriveTest® has been a game changer. I can’t speak any more highly of SalesDrive testing with Dr. Chris Croner.”

“RMS has used the SalesDrive Assessment over 35 times to evaluate candidates for its Loan Advisor position. It has been a critical tool in assessing candidates drive to succeed and compete, their core skills, and what sort of sales role they are most comfortable with: Hunter or Farmer. We have used the [DriveTest®] Assessment and the Production Builder™ to effectively interview candidates. I would say we have made better hiring decisions utilizing this tool. RMS plans to continue using the DriveTest® going forward.”

SalesDrive and Dr. Chris Croner provide a level of insight and partnership that I haven’t seen matched elsewhere. Not only is the tool excellent so is the partnership and advisory you get when you work with SalesDrive. We began working with the tool at the beginning of 2017 and really value the insight, structure and 3rd party unbiased information we’re able to obtain.
