In this episode, Bryan dives into the critical strategy of maintaining a “virtual bench” - a curated list of talented individuals you’d love to have on your sales team. Instead of scrambling to post job ads and sift through countless resumes when a rep leaves, Bryan explains how to stay ahead by proactively building and nurturing relationships with top talent. Learn why keeping your virtual bench warm with at least one touchpoint per year can give you a competitive edge and ensure you’re never caught off guard by unexpected resignations or team restructuring.
