Her job is "intake," which basically means sales. She is one of the attorneys who talks to the teeming mass of humanity that contacts my shitlaw firm daily, and tries to convince them to pay us money.

She has been doing the job for a couple of months now. I hired her after another chick who was covering her sales territory quit. Previous chick did very well incidentally.

Anyway, she has never really taken off. Has had like one good week in her time in the job, usually is about 30-50% below the sales of her predecessor. Is also defensive and resistant to coaching. I have spent a lot of time sitting with her on calls. She works hard and says the right things, but it's just not clicking. Should I fire her? If not, how do I get her on track?

Correctamundo. Although if she was making her sales goals I wouldn't care what she is. How did you know?

CR even over the phone and especially with proles. They basically can’t differentiate between “I would fuck this person” and “I trust this person.”

There are some great CLEs out there on "making your sales goals as a lawyer." Maybe send her to one?

Practice area? Fat and brown would work well for crim maybe not boutique litigation.

sounds like an obvious yes. you could also tie her comp to her performance, but it sounds like she just doesn’t get it.

She's already paid purely on commission. She doesn't sell, she doesn't eat. So I'm not paying her a bunch of money, but I'm missing out on sales leads that I'm spending a lot of money to generate.

My take is that if she works hard you should keep her. Hire someone else and slowly transition her out of this role. A hard worker is hard to find these days and she probably could do another job better. If it still doesn’t work out you can just say, “hey I tried you in two different roles and it wasn’t a fit.” Makes you seem less capricious, especially if she were to find this thread.

Was definitely planning to offer her another job in the firm if I fire her from this one.

Maybe spend some $ to send her to a sales course? go on written record saying she needs to improve?

Yeah I'm sure he just needs to invest MOAR resources and effort into the underperforming fat brown who is also resistant to training
