Hey there, Sam Taggart here, from the DDD Apprentice, where we dive deep into the mechanics of scaling businesses effectively. In our latest boot camp session, we tackled a challenge that many CEOs and master leaders face: scaling their sales teams rapidly to meet ambitious revenue targets. Let’s break down how we’re revolutionizing the recruitment game.
Beyond Traditional Recruitment: Embrace the New Era
Gone are the days when posting a job ad on Indeed or ZipRecruiter was enough. At our business boot camp, we discussed why traditional methods don’t cut when you need to scale fast. Take Ricky from Extreme Solar, who was tasked with growing his sales team from 10 to 30 reps to hit a whopping $20 million revenue target. His strategy? Leverage technology and empower his existing team to recruit. Here’s how we’re making this happen.

I knocked doors since I was 11! Never bought into the whole hourly normal job, and used direct sales to be the vehicle to create MASSIVE success. I Started the Direct Sales division for Solcius as their VP building it up to have 70+ sales reps nation wide. In 2018 I left to pursue a greater mission to unify and uplevel the Door to Door industry and founded the D2D Experts.
