We Match Salespeople to Your Business, Not Just Your Job Spec

Hiring the wrong salespeople can drain your time, money, and morale. Learn how aligning candidates with your culture and values leads to better performance and lasting success.

The Real Cost of Hiring the Wrong Salespeople

It’s easy to believe that finding a great salesperson is all about matching skills to a job description. But here’s the truth: A candidate can tick every box on your job spec and still fail to deliver the results you need. Why? Because they don’t align with your company’s culture, values, and goals.

Hiring the wrong person isn’t just frustrating—it’s expensive. Think about the wasted time, the missed sales opportunities, and the cost of replacing them. If you’ve ever felt like your hiring decisions just aren’t sticking, you’re not alone. Many businesses struggle to find salespeople who fit not only the role but also the organisation. The good news? It doesn’t have to be this way.

Why Skills Alone Aren’t Enough

Sure, a candidate’s experience and skills matter. But when sales hires don’t align with your business’s values or culture, their performance can fall flat. Why?

  • Lack of cultural fit: Misaligned values can lead to disengagement, lower morale, and, ultimately, poor performance.
  • Short-term mindset: Someone who’s not invested in your mission is less likely to stick around, leading to high turnover rates.
  • Team disruption: A new hire who doesn’t gel with the team can disrupt collaboration and productivity.

The reality is that hiring for skills alone is like building a house on shaky foundations—it might look good at first, but it won’t stand the test of time.

Before Working with Coburg Banks: A Common Hiring Struggle

Let’s imagine the hiring process before Coburg Banks. You post a job ad, sift through CVs, and interview candidates who seem like a good fit on paper. Maybe you even make a hire. But weeks or months later, you realise something’s off.

  • Disengaged new hires: They’re not excited about your company’s goals, and it shows in their performance.
  • High turnover: You’re back to square one, spending more time and money on recruitment.
  • Missed targets: Without the right people driving sales, your revenue goals remain out of reach.

Sound familiar? This is the reality for many companies who focus solely on matching candidates to job specs, ignoring the bigger picture of cultural and organisational fit.
