Outsource Your Sales Team

Is your sales team ready to conquer new markets?

Companies today face major challenges when it comes to recruiting effective salespeople: talent shortages, high turnover, rising salary costs, and difficulties entering new markets. But what if the solution was outsourcing?

Outsourcing your sales force means entrusting the recruitment, management, and sometimes even the supervision of your sales reps to an external provider. It also offers the opportunity to hire remote salespeople often based in high-potential regions like Africa where you can find multilingual profiles, trained in digital sales, available quickly and at competitive costs.

At Talenteum.com, we’ve been supporting European and international companies for years in developing remote sales strategies. Thanks to our international employment outsourcing model and HR expertise, we connect the right talents to the right projects, in full compliance. This article explains why outsourcing your salespeople is no longer just an option it’s a winning strategy to boost your revenue and expand into new markets.

The Limits of the Traditional Model: Hiring In-House Salespeople

Hiring a salesperson internally may seem like the natural choice, but this model has significant limitations, especially for SMEs and startups. The fixed costs are high: between salary, social charges, travel, training, and equipment, the real cost of a salesperson often exceeds €60,000 per year. Add to that lengthy recruitment times (often 3 to 6 months) and high turnover studies show the average salesperson stays less than two years in a company.

Another challenge: finding suitable local talent. In many regions, good sales profiles are rare or already over-solicited. And when expanding internationally, the equation becomes even more complex understanding local markets, recruiting bilingual or multilingual salespeople, and complying with local regulations.

As a result, many companies miss out on commercial growth due to lack of agility. They wait too long, invest in risky hires, or avoid testing new markets due to limited human resources.

Outsourcing your sales force offers more flexibility, faster execution, and the ability to test markets cost-effectively with the right resources.

Outsourcing Sales: An Agile, Cost-Effective, and International Solution

Sales outsourcing means handing over all or part of your commercial activities to independent contractors or employees managed through a provider. This approach offers several immediate advantages:

  • Agility: Scale your sales team up or down as needed, with no long-term commitment.
  • Cost savings: Reduce your fixed expenses while maintaining high service quality.
  • Targeted expertise: Access profiles trained in prospecting, closing, B2B, or B2C depending on your market.
  • International reach: Recruit salespeople directly in the regions where you want to sell without setting up a subsidiary.

At Talenteum, we go a step further. Through our international employment outsourcing model, you can legally integrate remote salespeople into your team without needing to establish a local entity. You maintain control over their tasks, and we handle the rest: contracts, payroll, compliance, onboarding.

Our talents are based in Africa a continent rich in multilingual sales profiles (French, English, Spanish), comfortable with digital tools, and quickly available. By outsourcing with Talenteum, you gain access to a strategic talent pool, reduce costs, and make a positive social impact.

Africa: An Underrated Goldmine of Sales Talent

Africa is often viewed as a developing continent. But in terms of sales talent, it’s a goldmine. Countries like Morocco, Tunisia, Senegal, Madagascar, and Cameroon train thousands of young professionals each year in marketing, customer service, and sales. These educated, multilingual, digital-native profiles already work in call centers and outsourced commercial departments for European companies.

Yet this potential remains largely untapped. Many companies hesitate to hire internationally due to legal complexity or lack of visibility. That’s where Talenteum comes in to lower this barrier by offering a turnkey solution to integrate this talent into your sales force.

Our salespeople are trained in cold calling, CRM tools, and remote customer engagement. They can serve French- or English-speaking markets, work in B2B or B2C segments, and adapt to your internal tools. They work from home or local digital hubs with optional supervision if needed.

By choosing African sales talent through Talenteum, you’re making a threefold bet: commercial efficiency, cost reduction, and a strong social impact by offering opportunities to talents often excluded from the international job market.
