Use in Selecting Candidates that Bring the Right Skills
The Sales Strategy Index presents 54 different "real life" sales situations. Each situation has four alternative ways to be handled. Respondents are given the opportunity to rank the four alternatives from "best" to "worst". By comparing their response with those of proven top sales professionals, a report is generated showing strengths, weaknesses and how well they understood sales strategy in seven categories.
