Is It Time To Certify Sales Professionals? We Think So. Here's Why.

Posted by The Team At Value Based Inc. on Jan 28, 2021 8:15:00 AM

>> We believe it's time to certify sales teams to ensure the outcome.

Your People Will Make Or Break You

Posted by valuebased on Oct 13, 2020 2:00:00 PM

Hiring the right people the first time around is critical. They’re not only the most valuable asset but, in most cases, the greatest cost. The primary cause of employee turnover today is not poor job performance, rather it is poor employee recruiting processes and selection criteria.
