SALES MANAGER
Sales managers develop sales regions, quotas, and targets in order to direct
the distribution of their company's products to customers. Sales managers
provide direction for the sales team by outlining training plans for the staff,
creating plans for the team's effective operation, and encouraging team
members to surpass short- and long-term sales goals. To find new clients the
sales team can pursue, sales managers also collaborate closely with the
marketing division.
“Great salespersons are relationship builders who provide value and
help their customers win.”
-Jeffrey Gitomer
