Tiivistelmä: | The salesman's position is quite different in industries where bidding is necessary for making contracts, than in industries where this not a prerequisite of contracting. Interviews with salesman from 16 companies in the construction industry clarified their role in bidding. They have to seek opportunities and do a lot of preparatory work for bidding. The tasks and duties are varying from industry to industry. The five common tasks are as follows: establishing the credibility of the salesman, undertaking market research, influencing design and specification, establishing the firm's credibility, and to organize a communication system. All these must be based on the marketing objectives and strategy of the firms in the industry. |
