Apical Resource Group LLC, an innovative travel and hospitality technology recruiting firm, announced that it has entered into an agreement with ResortSuite to deliver Sales Team Augmentation (STA) services that will enhance ResortSuite's sales division.
Sales Team Augmentation changes the playing field related to how companies sell their products and manage their sales team. Apical enables companies to focus on their larger, major accounts and use STA to augment their current and future sales initiatives.
The structure is fairly simple yet addresses an immediate need. Apical will be able to parachute in a highly qualified team, get them trained and selling the client's products within a very short time frame. Apical STA teams will be contractors and as such, the clients will not have to bear the brunt of benefits, tracking, follow-up and mentoring. This is all up to Apical. The upside for the client is substantial.
'Apical Resource Group is very excited about this new relationship with ResortSuite', stated Alan E. Young, Partner at Apical Resource Group. 'We believe that the technology market is now ready to embrace a new way of selling their products and services and we are proud that ResortSuite believes in Apical and this new initiative. As a leading provider of integrated guest-focused hospitality management software, ResortSuite has an extremely strong solution for the hospitality and spa industries and we know that together, we will be able to increase the sales and visibility of ResortSuite's solutions even further.'
'We are extremely happy to be working with Apical Resource Group and its new Sales Team Augmentation initiative,' stated Frank Pitsikalis, Founder and CEO of ResortSuite. 'We are now living and working in a different time where companies need to look to new models where they can increase sales. Our ResortSuite solutions are gaining market share at a very fast pace and we want to ensure that we address the hospitality industry and its needs effectively. Our relationship with Apical will be able to help us continue to grow quickly and effectively.'
Apical's STA may also be used to undertake market segments that are geographic or customer-focused; such as, properties with 75 rooms or less, F&B establishments which cannot sustain a salaried sales person, and/or non-North American based companies expanding into this market and do not wish to incur the cost of establishing and managing a sales presence remotely. The Sales Team Augmentation initiative will reduce the opportunity cost of these types of sales and thus ensure that companies garner the best possible margins.
