There are many ("we are truly lucky to have them") on the IMSC sales team that have been there for 6+ months that haven't sold Jack. What's Natasha been doin? The cool relationship between Putin and Obama ain't helping. (again TIME!) Smiths/morpho have a diverse product line and aren't going away any time soon. Perhaps their ETD line isn't doing so well, but neither is IMSC's.
So, if you had a diverse company line and "the best sales guys ever to walk the face of the earth", would you shift them to another division, or put the writing on the wall for them.
I'd bet ya every sales person at IMSC that left their secure companies, have more the once said to themselves sitting at an IMSC desk, "man this is a lot harder than I was lead to believe it would be, hope this pan's out".
