Choose the right perspective
Match the person to the packaging format and customer you sell to, since corrugated boxes and displays, flexible film and pouches, plastic bottles and luxury cartons reach different buyers. Also consider whether you need someone who leads a national account program or someone who runs the whole sales function at a smaller company.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you split a packaging sales team between national accounts, regional territories and new business?
- 02How do you work with design, plant and customer service teams so quotes, samples and launches land on time?
- 03What did you change in how you hired, paid and measured salespeople as the business grew?
