Value Proposition

If you are considering hiring an experienced government sales representative, expect the first year costs to break down as follows:

 

Annual Costs

Direct Sales Hire

Salary $120,000
Draw 48,000
Benefits 12,000
Overhead 38,000
One-time recruiting fee 36,000
First Year Investment $254,000

 

These figures are approximate and vary with experience. Regardless, it is extremely difficult for a single sales executive to succeed consistently and repeatedly in the government arena. To improve your chances for success, you'll need at least one business development executive to focus on opportunities more than six months out. Additionally, you'll need an executive responsible for developing and managing relationships with the area's system integrators. If you add these figures to your cost of adding a sales executive, you will likely bear first year costs in excess of $700,000.

However, the most difficult problem with hiring your own team is not the cost; it is the availability of experienced personnel. The government sales market is experiencing its greatest growth ever, and the talent pool has not been able to keep up with demand.

By engaging GSF, you can acquire a complete team of highly experienced and networked government sales executives at GSF for less than the cost of a lone sales representative.

 

 


Draining the Talent Pool
 

 

"I'd hire a good sales rep tomorrow... if I could find one."

Sound familiar? We hear that mantra from virtually every client trying to gain a foothold in the federal sector.

There is a severe shortage of talented, experienced, and widely networked federal sales reps. The demand for the available talent has outstripped the supply, effectively stranding growing technology firms.

That's why GSF's value proposition is so compelling. Gain the experience, knowledge and extended capabilities of an entire federal sales team for less than the annual cost of one sales rep.
