Welcome to Closer

See what some of our clients are saying below:

"When we first learned of Closer Consulting we were in the process of developing and installing our own system for hiring sales people and managing their performance. Once I learned more about the tools offered by Closer Consulting, I saw that they accomplished exactly what I was trying to build from scratch. It was far more efficient and effective to use the Closer Consulting tools, so we did. The first tool was the ExpressScreen, which we used after the initial interview. Then if the candidate made the cut, we used Closer Consulting's full Sales Force Profile. Prior to using these tools to screen and hire we were wasting a significant amount of time and money. We had no real process. Now our process is rigorous, yet streamlined, and is recognized throughout the organization and by HR as being one of the best hiring systems in place at our company today. And we are getting results. The people we are hiring now fit our organization better and produce faster. Plus, by reducing the risk of making a bad hiring decision from a 50/50 probability to 75/25, we are saving hundreds of thousands of dollars for every new sales person hired. Another tool we use is the weekly sales reporting system that truly helps us track and manage day-to-day performance for accelerated results. I'm convinced that all of these solutions, combined with the regular coaching we receive from Closer Consulting have influenced my ability to focus on the work that needs to get done and to ultimately lead our team to sales success."

"As a sales manager for 8 years, I was looking to further refine my skills. First I worked one-on-one with Closer Consulting - Hunter Byington was my personal management coach. Then after about 6 months we launched several of Closer Consulting's assessment and training tools throughout the organization. The results were dramatic - a 67% lift in sales within the first year. The organization benefited significantly and I'm a better manager today because of Closer Consulting. They gave me the tools to be successful. That makes all the difference."
Kathleen Frenzel
Director of Business Development

"Right from the start I was impressed with Closer Consulting's understanding of the marketplace. While the candidate screening program costs the same as using headhunter services, I found that working with Closer Consulting gave me more value.because they help you do more than hire salespeople. Specifically, they have enabled us to critique interviewees better, helped us in our expectations of what a salesperson can do at different stages of the development process and taught us to be patient. And Closer Consulting sticks with you. Over the past year they have helped us find, screen and hire two new salespeople and they are still actively helping us find good candidates."

"Express Screen and Closer Consulting's consulting around the findings have become an important part of our three-component selection process. I have just hired two candidates and tendered an offer to a third. Truly these are the best candidates I have ever invited to join our company in the 16+ years I've been here. We have never hired at this caliber of performer in our industry. While the long-term results are still to come, I feel that these candidates will lead us to a higher level of sales performance much more quickly than previous hires. Furthermore, a real value-add is the way Closer Consulting works with us to interpret the data for each of the candidates screened. Closer Consulting has terrific insights into their resumes and backgrounds that they link to the Express Screen findings. They then coach me on where to probe further with candidates to support or clarify their ability to be a successful salesperson for our company. What a tremendous resource to have."

"Express Screen is a very unique tool. It identifies the absence or presence of key success factors that are very difficult to pick up in an interview with a sales candidate. It screens the behaviors that can really hurt the organization down the road if they are not detected up front. This is a rigorous and demanding tool. If a sales candidate scores high on the Express Screen instrument I know we have found someone who can work well in our organization. Someone with a fast ramp up who will be a top producer."
