Written by Australia’s Top Sales Hiring Specialist

Jason Howes, Founder of Arrow Executive Sales

With over 35 years in the field, Jason has partnered with **Objective Management Group (OMG)** to bring science-backed, data-driven recruitment to the sales process.

This book distills what he's learned through hundreds of successful placements: how to identify the traits that matter, how to measure them, and how to build a hiring system that guarantees results.

The Cost of a Bad Sales Hire is Too High

Relying on "gut feel" and resume experience only works **50% of the time**. When you fail, the damage is severe:

The Financial Drain

The average cost of a failed sales hire is **$200,000** in lost momentum, time, and revenue.

Team Morale Hit

A non-performer demotivates good team members and undermines management's credibility.

The Cycle Repeats

If you don't change the process, the vicious cycle of high turnover will continue year after year.
