How to Hire a Good Salesperson

from The Sales Focus Podcast · host Tony Horwath

What actually makes someone great at sales, and how do you spot it before you hire them? In this episode, we break down the core traits, habits, and mindset shifts that separate average salespeople from top performers, and more importantly, how to identify those qualities when you’re building a team. From emotional intelligence to resilience, hiring the right salesperson isn’t about finding the loudest or most outgoing candidate. It’s about recognizing who can build trust, understand real customer needs, and consistently deliver. Whether you’re growing a team or refining your hiring process, this episode offers clear, actionable insights to help you make better decisions. Because at the end of the day, great salespeople don’t just sell. They solve problems, build trust, and create long-term value.
