Selling Power magazine has named Heartland Payment Systems
(NYSE:HPY), the nation's fifth largest payments processor and a
leading provider of merchant business solutions, the top company to
sell for in the United States. This marks the seventh consecutive
year Heartland has received a top five distinction on Selling
Power’s “50 Best Companies to Sell For” list, and the fourth time
Heartland has received the number one ranking.
Selling Power evaluates companies based on three key factors:
customer growth and retention; hiring, compensation, sales training
and enablement; and company recognition and reputation. Heartland
ranked number one overall (tied with SunGard), earning high scores
in all three categories.
"We’ve worked hard to make Heartland a company our employees can
be proud to work for, based on our foundations of honesty,
integrity and transparency,” said Robert O. Carr, chairman and CEO
of Heartland Payment Systems. "We continue to make substantial
investments in the sales organization, investing millions in sales
infrastructure and support, sales technology, and tools and
training. We are bringing to market more products and services that
allow our sales professionals to sell multiple products, which
increases their opportunity to maximize income.”
Heartland’s sales culture incorporates ongoing mentorship and
award-winning sales tools that enable its relationship managers to
build professionally and financially rewarding careers. Heartland’s
unique sales mentoring program is designed to grow margins through
the development of knowledge in the field, and the sales training
team helps identify unique and engaging formats to provide
information to the sales force. Heartland's proprietary Web-based
CRM solution, Atlas, is specifically designed to make Heartland’s
sales team as effective as possible by streamlining and enhancing
the entire sales process.
“Many would suggest that the culture of Heartland is strong
because of our world-class proprietary sales enablement platform,
our two-decades-old uncapped compensation plan, or our unwavering
commitment to doing what is right for our customers,” said Tony
Capucille, Heartland’s chief sales officer. “But the real secret is
our people. Heartland has built an environment for value-based
sales professionals and leaders who want to succeed by pursuing
mastery of their craft, career and character. The culture of
Heartland protects not only that journey, but also the reward.”
Heartland’s entrepreneurial business and compensation model
incentivizes its sales force with weekly signing bonuses and
long-term portfolio ownership with residual income. These rewards
empower Heartland’s sales professionals by giving them the tools
they need to realize long-term success and career growth.
