RISK-FREE RECRUITING

Industry-Leading Performance Guarantee

When it comes to Austin sales recruiting, experience our commitment to results with flexible, performance-based fee structures and a guarantee you can count on.

We don't settle for average sales talent, and neither should you.

From Austin’s bustling tech startups to established Fortune 500s, we’ve spent over a decade building the city’s strongest sales talent network. Our proven recruitment strategies don’t just fill positions—they match the right salespeople to your company’s unique culture and growth stage. Whether you’re scaling your team downtown or expanding to Domain NORTHSIDE, we know exactly where to find Austin’s top performers.

Targeted Headhunting

Our secret? We connect with Austin’s elite sales performers—the ones crushing quotas and breaking records across industries, from SaaS and hardware to manufacturing and professional services. These aren’t job seekers scrolling LinkedIn. They’re successful sales leaders and top performers who only move for the right opportunity. And after years of building relationships throughout Austin’s business community, we know exactly how to reach them.

Rigorous Assessment Process

While other recruiters just scan resumes, we dig deeper. Our proven assessment process, anchored by the industry-leading HOGAN® leadership test, reveals what really matters: a candidate’s true sales DNA. Through rigorous behavioral interviews and advanced psychometric evaluations, we uncover the traits that separate average performers from sales superstars. It’s how we consistently spot the difference between those who interview well and those who actually deliver results.

Talentfoot and Patrick spent the time to learn about our organization, our wants, our needs, and our weaknesses, helped shape the search criteria, and gave real feedback on the candidates you produced. Other firms should be embarrassed. They are poseurs compared to our experience with Talentfoot.

The team did a great job of telling our story to build and maintain candidate interest and moved the process forward efficiently. We are thrilled to have our first choice candidate come on board.
