In the end, as a sales person, who do you want to satisfy?

actually all of the above ... your customer knowing he/she is happy with the purchase, your boss to show him you get the revenue in and you are doing a great job, your team .. well they will love that end of the year bonus.... but mostly yourself knowing you have done your best ... 

OF COURSE MYSELF , BECAUSE I HAVE TO FILL UP MY TARGET CALCULATING ALL THROUGH OTHERS .

AS A TYPICAL TEAM PLAYER .................... MY ANSWER WILL BE ,,,,,,  MY TEAM .

Customer

when I worked as Distribution Sales Executive, I would like to satisfy myself. Cuz when I could achieve my Volume,Productivity,COH,Priority,SBD Targets, I could get more confidence and happy at all time, what ever it is our duty to satisfy our employer through achieving targets, customers through timely delivery. When ever we achieve target, the entire team would be happy.

I will go for option A. Satisfying your customer will lead to satisfying the company, yourself, and your team.

I agree with Elke, Ragesh  & Bahaa that all are equally important.

Self satisfaction is the Motivating factor that upgrade everything.

First I have to satisfy myself, without self satisfaction and confidence in my work I believe, I cannot comply with others requirements as there will be a gap to bridge all the time.

Actually its a complicated question, as a sales person he should follow the win win method. He should satisfy all the four.

A. Your Customer

B. Your Boss

C. Yourself

D. Your Team

If he cant satisfy any of these four its the failure of that sales person.

Whether it's end or beginning, you will get recognition when all the above mentioned people are satisfy.

A. Your Customer
