• Ensure that resources are up to date and readily accessible. 

Continuous Improvement:

• Adapt the onboarding program based on feedback and changing company needs. 

KPI’s and Success Metrics:

• Time-to-Productivity (TTP): Measure the average time it takes for new sales hires to become fully productive and start contributing to revenue generation.
• Quota Attainment: Track the percentage of new sales team members who achieve or exceed their sales quotas within the specified onboarding period.
• Retention Rate: Monitor the retention rate of sales team members who have completed the onboarding program to ensure they remain with the company.
• Customer Satisfaction: Gather feedback from customers who have interacted with recently onboarded sales representatives to gauge their experience and ensure our content leads to a great buyer experience. A key Access value is “making It happen for our customers”.
• Onboarding Program Feedback: Continuously collect feedback from new hires on the quality and effectiveness of the onboarding program and make improvements based on their input.
• Certified to Sell Completion Rate: Monitor the percentage of new sales hires who successfully complete the onboarding program as designed and are certified to sell.
• Onboarding Cost per Hire: Calculate the cost associated with onboarding per new sales hire and work to optimize this cost while maintaining quality.
