Sales Now: Essential Skills

Every organisation knows the value of an effective sales team; one with salespeople who can stand out from the competition, generate more quality leads, and close more sales. More than ever, having an effective and efficient sales team is the only way to survive and expand in today’s increasingly volatile and saturated markets. But, many sales managers feel their team’s performance is at odds with the selling potential they believe their team should have.
