Sales Assessment Test NZ
A question for Business Owners and Sales Managers: in dollar terms, what is a sales-person performing at 150% of their targets worth to your business?
If the ‘successful applicant’ for your next sales job turns out to only be capable of hitting 50% of their targets, what does that look like on your bottom line?
Why Use Sales Focused Tests?
Poppleton Allen Sales Aptitude Test (PASAT)
Available in New Zealand exclusively through People Central, PASAT is the most comprehensive sales personality test on the market.
PASAT measures the likelihood of a candidate to succeed in a sales or customer relationship role, as well as identifying where an employer needs to concentrate sales training and development to get that person from good to great.
Clients love the easily interpreted, traffic-light style reports which identify strengths and priority training needs, removing the need to send sales teams on cookie-cutter generic training courses and instead targeting tailored training where it is most needed.
In recruitment, PASAT enables employers to identify potential high flyers and accelerate job offers ahead of their competitors, reject low scorers who will never deliver no matter how much time, effort and dollars you throw at them and make the most of candidates with the potential to perform if targeted training and coaching is applied.
