Spring Break isn’t just for students. For many professionals, it’s a much-needed chance to recharge—and that includes your sales team. But when several team members are off enjoying their vacations, the show must go on in your sales office.
In new home sales and multifamily communities, every day matters. A missed appointment or an unanswered inquiry could mean a lost sale. So how do you maintain momentum without burning out the rest of your staff?
Here’s how to keep your office running like clockwork during Spring Break:
- Plan Ahead for Time Off
Encourage team members to submit vacation requests early so you can identify potential coverage gaps in advance. Spacing out time off helps avoid overlap and keeps coverage consistent. - Cross-Train for Coverage
Having multiple team members who can step into each other’s roles allows for more flexibility when someone’s away. It also fosters teamwork and skill development across your staff. - Utilize Temporary and On-Call Staff
That’s where Smart Staffing Solutions comes in. We specialize in providing experienced, on-demand professionals who can step in seamlessly—whether for a day, a week, or the entire season. - Keep Communication Flowing
Ensure your team is aligned with clear schedules, responsibilities, and hand-offs before anyone heads out on break. A quick huddle or shared digital tracker can make a big difference. - Don’t Overload the Remaining Staff
Avoid burnout by keeping expectations realistic. Supplement with temp staffing when needed to ensure your full-time team can maintain quality without being stretched too thin.
Smart Staffing Solutions is here to help you maintain a high-performing team—even when part of it is on the beach. Contact us to learn how temporary staffing can help you keep sales strong through every season.
