If you are noticing red flags in your company, take a step back and think about what makes sense. Once you find the problem, solve it.
Most businesses are founded not by individuals who have been in sales and who've built sales organizations, but by engineers, doctors, lawyers, or people with other professional backgrounds. 
In a business, it is always important to think about is who are you selling to and how are you selling it? 
In order to increase your sales numbers in your business, hire someone who has done sales in the past. Hiring someone with a long sales history is beneficial to the growth of your company and the amount of revenue brought in.
Henning believes that entrepreneurs build their products first and then they build their company around it. It is always good to start off by refining the product you want to sell before starting the company. With no product, there is nothing to sell.
To find the perfect salesperson, you should start off with a scope to help understand and document what you want this person to accomplish. Making this will help narrow down your top picks.
