WHAT WE EVALUATE

Technical knowledge. Commercial strength.

The right automation professional can connect a technical solution to a business need. We help you look beyond job titles to understand what someone has sold, who they have sold to and how they develop business.

01

Product experience

Which technologies have they sold, supported or helped customers specify?

02

Application knowledge

Can they recognize customer challenges and involve the right technical resources?

03

Customer relationships

Do they understand your buyers, decision-makers and sales channels?

04

Sales approach

Have they succeeded with component sales, engineered solutions or longer project cycles?

Product experts. For your team.
