What kind of agent is suited to this opportunity?
Sales reps should be technically competent and have the ability to do some consultive selling on the fly during face to face meetings. As these are systems that are in a higher sales bracket than the average 1st level manager usually could approve, it will be necessary to have experience contacting management personnel at levels capable of approving the purchase. We typically start at a $5000 minimum but of course that is subjective to the situation.
