How Do You Recruit the Best Salespeople When You Don't Have Much Money?Creating the best sales team takes more than monetary incentives.

Just about any business needs good salespeople. In order to sustain your company, you need someone who can bring in new clients so that you can focus on the business itself. But, what if you have no money? What if you're just starting out and have not made enough money yet to attract the best salesperson for the job?

Well, lucky for you, you don't need a lot of money. Studies have shown thatpeople aren't always motivated by a bigger salary, and job satisfaction depends on more than just money.

In my business, I have more than 200 people around the world as a part of my team. And, I don't pay any of them -- they actually pay me. I have a licensing model that allows them to use my branding and assets for a small fee, once they have proven their qualifications to teach my materials and made the commitment to deliver on the brand promise.

They might not fit the role of what is traditionally thought of a salesperson in a company, but that's what everyone in my business does: sell. That's how it should be in every company.

Be the best salesperson you can be.

If you're looking to hire salespeople, you might think that you don't need to be good at sales. But it is quite the opposite. As I mentioned earlier, everyone -- including yourself -- should know how to sell. You may get to a point in your business where you're not the main person bringing in new clients, but you still have ideas you need to sell to others, like investors or the press. You still need to be able to sell your ideas to your team, and get them on board with your vision.

When you're interviewing a potential candidate, how is your energy level? Are you charismatic? Are you enthusiastic about the position and the opportunity? When the interview is done, you want the candidate to feel like they're ready to jump on your bandwagon and get started right away.

Know what else you can offer.

If you can't compete in the market with a high salary, you can at least offer other incentives that not only attract top talent, but also keeps your business afloat. Many employees now want better work-life balance, so maybe you can offer a flexible work schedule. Let people telecommute. Consider offering profit sharing or higher commission in the near future.

If your product or services are innovative and revolutionary, that alone may be incentive enough for a potential hire. People like to know that they could be joining a business that's about to blow up. Can you sell that vision to them?
