## Caption

Most sales teams fail after the hire.

You spend weeks recruiting, interviewing, convincing someone to join…
Then Day 1 looks like: desk, laptop, CRM login. Good luck.

If you want retention and performance, onboarding isn’t orientation.
It’s a system.

One pattern we see constantly with SMBs:
Top reps want structure. Average reps need it.
When neither gets it, leadership time explodes and turnover follows.

The teams that win do something different in the first two weeks.
They don’t “wing it.” They run reps through a defined onboarding path—tasks, role plays, recorded practice, and clear expectations—before heavy one-on-one time.

That single shift protects leadership bandwidth and filters for commitment early.
It also shortens ramp time because reps aren’t guessing how success works.

Here’s something you can do today:
Map the first 14 days of onboarding as if leadership time were scarce—because it is. If a rep can’t follow the system, that tells you everything you need to know.

We break this down step by step in our free weekly webinar, Thursdays at 11am MST / 1pm EST.

Curious—what does your onboarding actually look like in week one?
