The correct answer is A . - Performance Cycle, which is the period related to specific product goals or job activities. The primary evaluator should be the salesperson’s immediate supervisor because this person has direct knowledge, having actually worked with the salesperson.

Performance and appraisal cycle.

However, development has to be an on going process.

Performance monitoring and evaluation for sales persons should be an on-going process by their sales manager with a weekly or twice weekly reviews. This is in order to ensure that sales is on course as per the targets fixed and immediate necessary actions can be taken to rectify situations. So from your given options, A. performance cycle for me is the answer.
