It is essential for the Sales function to constantly change and update to meet the requirements of a rapidly changing market place. Customer requirements, technology, innovations and constant pressure on costs have heralded significant changes in distribution and sales channels from a traditional style of door to door and high street to multi channel distribution requirements that now include web, telephone, email and post.
Margins have been squeezed and the sales force has needed to improve efficiency to maintain a cost effective operation. Coupled with this, customers require a quicker more efficient transaction to fit with the changing lifestyle requirements. This has meant organisations have had to:
- Deliver a differentiated brand promise at the front line.
- Improve the bottom line by reducing cost of sales.
- Align resources (people, profile, time and cash) to maximise growth potential.
- Deliver a consistent channel/customer experience.
With multiple channels, joint ventures and strategic alliances being the norm, it is critical that an organisation's 'knowledge' of its customers touch points is both comprehensive and up to date. The Sales function needs to work with other functions and processes to actively 'manage' brand delivery at the front line.
