At the present time as a result of the tremendous developments by means of sale, communications and new technologies used in it, a new burden on sales management for the advancement of the added sales, so it became the role of the sales management strategy takes the dimensions of planning to implementation through many other complementary activities.

 

The important role played by the sales management and the effects of this role on various activities of the organization (production, marketing, financial and other ...) which made this administration occupies a distinct locations within the interests of senior management of the organization.

 

The reason lies behind this interest is due to the fact that the sales represent the main source of revenue, which funds all activities of the organization and against which the general budget of the organization selected. The preparation of this budget depends primarily on expected revenue obtained in the coming period, and what was the basis of these revenues are estimates of the size and the values of sales and this means that spending on various aspects of the activity within the organization vocabulary based on sales estimates at the same time, the sales management activities, and through coverage the geographical spread of the points of sales contribute to providing what is needed consumer goods and services in a time of need or the occurrence of a demand and specifications desired by and check his gratification, satisfaction, and then loyalty to the organization and its products and this is the essence of marketing at the moment.

 

Is evident from the foregoing that the impressionist role of sales management and sales forces which is a dual role and influence takes two directions:

 

The first trend respect to the organization: sales contribute to get the revenue and profit, which is the basis for the survival, growth and development of any organization. Without these revenues and profits of any organization can not continue to conduct business.

 

The second trend respect to the consumer: the points of sales and sales forces deployed in the market to provide goods and services at the time, the place to contribute, and specifications that the consumer wants to obtain.

Accordingly the activities that the sales executive has to perform is listed out and the time taken for such activities is also estimated.
