Where to find a partner manager / recruiter?
I need a team of reps working in their local markets - my inside sales people are doing OK, but whenever we visit a local client we close at twice to three times the rate.
The obvious solution: a horde of reps around the country, selling into their local market.
I've also seen a model where the local team acts as SDRs, doing lead generation, and the sale gets done by inside reps. I'm also considering this.
Basically I need the lead volume to go up.
Which would you do? Go after local reps, or after local lead generators and pay them on success?
