Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolution is taking place in the way companies organize and manage the 'front-end' of their organization, where it meets its customers. Traditional concepts of sales management, account management, and customer service are being overtaken by initiatives like customer business development, the strategic sales organization, and strategic customer management. This book aims to provide insights into how this revolution is unfolding and to provide a framework for executives and management students to address the issues involved. The book focuses on the transformation of the traditional sales organization into a strategic force leading the strategic customer management process in companies. Traditionally, the area of sales management has mainly been treated as a tactical, operational topic in the conventional marketing literature - simply part of the communications mix within the planned marketing programme. However, the emergence of major customers as dominant buyers in many sectors as a result of pressures towards consolidation and enhanced scale of operations, is changing the way in which sales issues are addressed in supplier organizations. The growth of new forms of buyer-seller relationship based on collaboration and partnering has encouraged organizations to reconsider the sales and account management operation as an important source of competitive differentiation in commoditized markets. Increasingly, sales is being perceived as a central part of business strategy and attention given to the challenges in better aligning sales processes with strategy. This has many implications for the design of the sales organization and its management strategy, which go far beyond the confines of conventional marketing views.

Download or read book Aligning Strategy and Sales written by Frank Cespedes and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2014-08-12 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The best sales book of the year" — strategy+business magazine That gap between your company’s sales efforts and strategy? It’s real—and a huge vulnerability. Addressing that gap, actionably and with attention to relevant research, is the focus of this book. In Aligning Strategy and Sales, Harvard Business School professor Frank Cespedes equips you to link your go-to-market initiatives with strategic goals. Cespedes offers a road map to articulate strategy in ways that people in the field can understand and that will fuel the behaviors required for profitable growth. Without that alignment, leaders will press for better execution when they need a better strategy, or change strategic direction with great cost and turmoil when they should focus on the basics of sales execution. With thoughtful, clear, and engaging examples, Aligning Strategy and Sales provides a framework for diagnosing and managing the core levers available for effective selling in any organization. It will give you the know-how and tools to move from ideas to action and build a sales effort linked to your firm’s unique goals, not a generic selling formula. Cespedes shows how sales efforts affect all elements of value creation in a business, whether you’re a start-up seeking to scale or an established firm looking to jump-start new growth. The book provides key insights to optimize your firm’s customer management activities and so improve selling and strategy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The data shows that senior executives today face a stark reality: Sales talent is increasingly difficult to find. Traditional selling strategies no longer work. And salespeople today are more distracted and aimless than ever before. To give their organizations true staying power in this tumultuous new market, company leaders must fundamentally change the way they look at sales-or else succumb to the competition. What today's senior leaders need is a high-velocity sales organization: an organization with the right performers, strategy, and infrastructure in place, allowing it to dramatically increase sales by converting more opportunities at higher prices to more prospects. Drawing on hard data, comprehensive research, and the latest science behind selling, Marc Wayshak has developed a system for building these fully sales-driven organizations. The High-Velocity Sales Organization brings together Wayshak's cutting-edge insights as a leading sales consultant with the latest data to create a step-by-step formula for accelerating a sales-driven company culture-from the top down. This guide for senior executives lays out the exact processes company leaders must implement to achieve the three pillars of a high-velocity sales organization: Performers-Learn to identify, recruit, and retain top performers for a consistent flow of A-player salespeople-and far fewer costly mis-hires Strategy-Develop and implement a self-improving, highly adaptive sales strategy that sets your salespeople apart from the competition Infrastructure-Establish a clear system for building out the right sales processes, with the most effective technology, to hold sales teams accountable

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Advertising and Sales Organization: Instruction Paper The purpose of this book is to teach neither the art of advertising nor the science of salesmanship, but rather to set forth some of the principles that must be applied in the organization of the advertising and sales department; in particular, to discuss the machinery of the departmental record-keeping systems. Opinions differ as to the proper place in a business organization of advertising and sales - whether they should be handled by, and considered as, two separate and distinct departmental organizations, or one. Both plans have their champions. Whether we call it an advertising or a sales department, the results sought - the reasons for the existence of the department - are the same. To sell goods is the aim of the organization, be its head an advertising manager or a sales manager. Advertising has been defined to be printed salesmanship; yet there is a well-defined dividing line between the work of the advertising man and the salesman. The advertising man seeks to impress the name of the house and the name and quality of its product, on the public mind; to create interest; to arouse curiosity; to stimulate desire; to attract people to the store - in a mercantile business. The salesman seeks to turn that interest, curiosity, desire, into action - the action of purchase. The advertising man introduces the possible customer; the salesman makes the sale. But in some businesses, the advertising man goes one step farther and actually makes the sale - as in advertising intended to secure direct orders, by mail. Also, the salesman, when the customer has been introduced, makes use of other forms of advertising, to further stimulate desire and assist in making the sale. No matter at what angle the subject is viewed, it is seen that the advertising man and the salesman are very dependent on each other.

Download or read book Sales Management Control Territory Design Sales Force Performance and Sales Organizational Effectiveness in the Pharmaceutical Industry written by Eric Longino and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Limited research exists about the determinants of sales organization effectiveness in pharmaceutical sales organizations. To fill this void, sales management control, sales territory design, and sales force performance are conceptualized as antecedents to sales organization effectiveness in pharmaceutical sales organizations. The results of the structural equation model tested suggested that pharmaceutical sales representatives perform better and are more effective when they are satisfied with sales territory design because of its significant relationship with sales force behavioral performance. The present study suggests sales force behavioral performance leads to sales organization effectiveness through its significant relationship to sales force outcome performance. These findings are somewhat different to those from similar studies in other industries, and identify some important implications for sales leaders in the pharmaceutical industry as well as suggesting a number of important research directions.

Download or read book The Complete Guide to Sales Force Incentive Compensation written by Andris A. Zoltners and published by Amacom Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designing an incentive plan to turn sales reps into sales superstars! If you're like most sales leaders, your incentive program is a constant challenge, as you try to jumpstart sales, energize a geographically dispersed and autonomous workforce, and motivate salespeople to achieve ambitious revenue goals. And sometimes it seems like you just don't know what works; your products and markets are changing, the incentive program that was so successful last year no longer produces the desired results, or perhaps the generous incentive program you created has yielded a corps of highly paid salespeople who spend most of their time on existing clients and minimal time generating new business -- and threaten to walk away with your customer base if you scale back paychecks! Incentive programs are seductively powerful but complicated instruments. Without careful planning and implementation, they can be too stingy to motivate, too complex to understand, too quick to reward mediocre results, and too difficult to implement. But a well-designed and implemented incentive program is an essential tool for building a motivated, highly effective sales force that delivers the results you need. The Complete Guide to Sales Force Incentive Compensation is a practical, accessible, detailed roadmap to building a compensation system that gets it right by creating motivating incentives that produce positive outcomes. Packed with hundreds of real-life examples of what works and what doesn't, this important guide helps you: Understand the value of building an incentive plan that is aligned with your company's goals and culture. Avoid the common trap of overusing incentives to solve too many sales management problems. Measure the effectiveness of your current incentive program, employing easy-to-use tools and metrics for pinpointing its weak spots.  Design a compensation plan that attracts and retains successful salespeople, including guidelines for determining the correct pay level, the best salary incentive mix, the proper performance measures, and the right performance payout relationship. Select an incentive compensation plan that works for your organization -- then test the plan before it is launched. Set territory-level goals that are fair and realistic, and avoid overpaying the sales force because goals are too easy, or demoralizing salespeople by having goals that are too difficult or not fairly assigned. Create and manage sales contests, SPIFFs (Special Performance Incentive for Field Force), and recognition programs that consistently deliver the intended results. Manage a successful transition to a new compensation plan and build efficient administration systems to support your plan. Every year, corporations spend $200 billion compensating their sales forces, with extremely mixed results. Make sure every dollar you spend is helping to achieve your goal of creating an empowered, effective sales force that drives your company's success. Packed with ready-to-use formulas and assessment tools and a wealth of insights from frontline sales managers and executives, The Complete Guide to Sales Force Incentive Compensation is your hands-on, easy-to-read playbook for crucially important decisions.
