The relevance of recruiting a technical sales representative on a fixed-term or permanent contract lies in understanding customer needs and proposing appropriate solutions. Their dual technical and commercial skills mean that they can also handle the technical characteristics of products, which is an advantage when it comes to helping customers make purchasing decisions. Archetype, a recruitment agency based in Belgium, specialises in the recruitment of these professionals and supports companies in this process.

Why is it necessary to recruit technical sales profiles?

Technical sales representatives are experts with both technical and commercial skills. Their dual role enables them to be versatile and adapt easily to companies’ needs. They play a key role in promoting and selling the products or services offered by the company, as well as acquiring new customers. They are also responsible for advising and assisting customers with their choices, in order to improve customer satisfaction.
Recruiting qualified technical sales staff enables companies to:

• Increase sales through a better understanding of customer needs and an effective sales approach
• Develop their customer portfolio through prospecting and networking
• Improve their brand image through a targeted product offering and appropriate communications
• Improve their customer relations by building loyalty and providing personalised follow-up to requests.
• It is therefore clear that the recruitment of technical sales representatives, just like that of a sales engineer, sales manager, general manager or any other profile, remains a challenge for companies wishing to develop and ensure their growth.
