Outsource Australia has experienced rapid growth over the last couple of years. The firm opened their first offices in Sydney, a vibrant hub of business innovation. Earlier this year the firm were delighted to announce that due to the hard work and impressive results of their dedicated sales force they were able to expand the business by opening a new office in Melbourne, Australia's second largest city. Outsource Australia's managing director Helen Poutakidis has an impressive eight years international experience within the industry and has come to recognise the winning personal traits that when combined, make an extraordinary salesperson. To help future sales superstars identify whether they have what it takes to succeed in the industry, and help businesses to build a strong and dynamic salesforce, Outsource Australia have shared the following five traits of successful salespeople.

Drive to Achieve
Great salespeople thrive on the feeling of closing a big deal and hitting targets. Whilst money may be a factor, many sales people believe the thrill of winning is a far more effective motivator. Outsource Australia believe that this is why workplace incentives and competitions are so successful in driving more sales in business.

Unflappable
Great salespeople don't let anything get under their skin. Whether it be an exceptionally difficult customer, or a question that they weren't prepared for, great salespeople have the ability to stay calm under pressure and deliver great customer service.

Control
Despite their ability to stay calm when faced with challenges, most sales people hate surprises. Great sales people are often control freaks, obsessing over every tiny detail in order to gain the very best results. It's this attention to detail that allows a great sales person to find solutions and close more sales.

Loyalty
Exceptional sales people are extremely loyal to their customers, often taking the time to check in with them long after the initial purchase process. By keeping track of their customers and solving any issues down the line, salespeople can build a strong relationship with their customers, which helps the business grow and develop by building a positive reputation among customers.

Paranoia
Despite being fiercely optimistic, great salespeople also embody a healthy dose of paranoia. A little paranoia helps them to constantly evaluate possible pitfalls and work on ways to reduce the risks. This balance allows a salesperson to actively prepare for any eventuality, and therefore increase their chances of making more sales.
