Most sales teams don’t have a *talent* problem — they have an *onboarding* problem.
We hire sharp reps… then throw them into a maze of scattered training, ad hoc shadowing, and a quota. And we’re surprised when they don’t stick or don’t ramp.
Great onboarding is not “day-one paperwork + a product deck.” It’s a 2–4 week runway where reps:
* Hear the key information more than once
* Run multiple reps on their pitch and messaging
* Get real feedback on actual sales conversations
* Have daily structure so they always know what “good” looks like
When you build that kind of system, two things happen:
1️⃣ Leadership gets *time back* instead of answering the same questions on repeat.
2️⃣ Retention and performance go up, because reps finally feel trained — not just hired.
How intentional is your onboarding process today on a scale of 1–10? What would it take to move it up by two points? 💭
