Tiivistelmä: | The problems and pitfalls of translating marketing strategy into sales force behavior are examined. A consideration of the theoretical relationship between marketing and sales roles is made. Five case studies are discussed: the missing strategy; the uniformed sales force; successful sales management; the missing directives; the chain in action. Practical guidance on the steps to successful enactment of strategy, including good communications, the definition of the desired behavior, the sales management policies that reflect long-term strategic aims. Strategic planning is shown to require a chain of management decisions. The practical implications are summarized. |
