Hiring the right people is easier then you think.
First look at the people already working for you when seeking to hire people to add to or replace current staff. What are the qualities of the best on your team? Why are they successful within your environment? What were they doing before coming to work with you? Was it them, or perhaps what you have done since they started that has developed success?
Your best prospects for future success will be those who closely match the best of what you already have. Gain an understanding of what keeps these people motivated and performing at peak ability. These are the traits you need to advertise and hire for.
Invest whatever it takes to bring a newly hired person fully into the team. Make them an important part of your operation and they will respond in kind.

The man on the top really wanted to be in this post and keeps on climbing. Ha Ha! Seriously, though, top people are there for you to find.

Exactly, when crafting the description of your ad use the the attributes of those top performers to attract more of the same.

Well said Ernie. If every dealer would commit the resources to bring every employee up to speed and make them feel welcome and part of the group it would pay immediate benefits.

Great info. Ernie. Most employers don't look inside their operation to hire new talent.

Why try to reinvent the wheel. We all know what it takes on both ends. A commitment from the dealer turns into a commitment from the recruit. There is nothing better then training a recruit that will be placed in a professional atmosphere. Everyone's confidence benefits.

The comments to the post are appreciated. An effective organization has leaders and followers. It has to be that way. With dignity, respect and a plan of action the leaders provide the path holding themselves accountable. The followers will do so willingly when they feel as if they are "in" on things and appreciated for their effort/results. Neither customers or employees will long frequent a dysfunctinal organization.

Continuous training and mentoring are critical. The dealer has to be willing to invest in his staff not just at time of hire, but continuously throughout their career.
