Description
Background and relations to other courses:
For many B2B companies, personal selling constitutes by far the most important component within their promotional mix. In its boundary spanning role between the company and its customers, the selling function can be characterized as the point of culmination of all activities that lead to long-term company success: Without an effective selling function that generates constant sales, all other marketing activities related to product development, distribution channel management, etc. would be of little value for the company. Whereas impersonal forms of communication and selling tend to dominate in consumer goods industries, industrial goods firms usually rely on personal selling by employing a sales force to call on customers. In this regard, sales management refers to the optimal design of the sales force with regard to organizational and personal aspects.
