OSM Solution:
Recruit, hire, and develop a Sales Force led by a full-time Airport Sales Manager. All team members were fully educated on the correlation between program results and program profitability and how these results drive their compensation package. Everyone, from OSM corporate to the Sales Representatives had some skin in the game and was included on all aspects of the acquisition process. Our internal Account Executive worked closely with Barclay’s to track program performance and process results quickly so field compensation could be adjusted to address trends in performance. As a result, Sales Reps were incented to maintain quality of accounts while driving volume.

Sales Reps have been described by client, customers and independent auditors as, high energy, knowledgeable, engaging and confident.
