I have an immediate need to add a sales rep in several states (we typically have each rep cover one or two states).
I am looking for ideas on how to best recruit new sales reps. Do local newspaper ads typically work? There are a number of site specifically for sales reps to find lines, and companies to find sales reps. These seem fairly effective, can you recommend some that have worked well for you, or at least what I should be looking for from these types of services to differentiate which firms might offer the best option for me? I have not found a site specific to education or publishing, assuming I would need to use a general sales rep search firm.
Any other input on what has worked well for recruiting new independent sales reps would be appreciated.
