The Current State of Senior Living Sales
Recruiting and retaining top sales talent has always been a challenge. Pre-pandemic, senior living sales positions were known for high turnover rates; the difficulty only increased when COVID-19 struck in 2020. At JDSG, our focus has always been on investing in continuing education and performance growth for salespeople with a focus on critical thinking and emotional intelligence. Now, more than ever, there is an opportunity to change the way people think about senior living sales and senior living itself.
