"Since
we started using Profiles Sales Indicator for pre-employment screening
for sales employees, we've been very happy. Because the test is online,
we find it easy to use. We test all applicants and make better hiring
decisions, giving us a better workforce. We are very happy with the
service." - Lisa Garnet, Swedish Match North America
"The
Profile XT and Profiles Sales Indicator Assessment have enabled our
company to benchmark the performance standards in our sales executives
so that we can strive to hire the best most productive candidates in
the shortest amount of time. It saves us about $45,000 each time we
can avoid hiring the wrong person. In addition, the Internet
application with onscreen administration, instant analysis and report
generation makes administration very easy and efficient."
- Howard Falkow, Director of Human Resources
"We
used Profiles' Sales Indicator assessment to help us place new
salespeople and coach people already on staff. The tools help us to
understand behavioral styles. The hiring products are very helpful. Ron
Cerceo, our Client Service Advisor, was attentive and supportive with
both individual assessments and large groups of salespeople."
- Elliot Levine, The Sales Factor

you for a job well done in the fifty-six seminars you conducted for

better at listening to, and addressing their needs. We have increased
sales by 30% each year for the last three years. I give Al Patey and
Paradigm Training due credit for some of this improvement. The desired
results are coming in and your sales training is one of the key
reasons." Lorne Lacey - General Manager, Human Resources
