SALES MANAGEMENT IS THE ART OF ? 1.TEAM WORK 2.NUMBERS 3.FOCUS ON OBJECTIVES 4. PASSION 5.SMART WORK ?WHAT YOU SAY?

I think all

Team Work, 

all answer are correct

1. Team Work

Sales management is the management of human potentials and available resources to promote values (sale of products / services) in the identified potential market and  to bring in return the potential of money and customers values.

Differentiating sales management from sales itself  ...  (per your question anyway),  I would differetntiate between "Managing Sales" which is sales management and "Executing/Doing/performing sales"    which is selliing itself

Second thing which attracted my attention is the use of the word "art" in your question ... and let me make the point and disctinction here that

1. Sales Management is more of a science than an art
2. Selling itself is more of an art than a science
3. However, in both aspects (sales management and sales itself) you need both art + science but in different proportions

Now let us examine the elements you mentioned ... and in the context of sales management specifically

1. TeamWork .... maybe but not necessarily ...  I would say30% or less
2. Numbers .... yes definitely ... mabe40% or mote ... but we focus here on "planning and managing the numbers" while making the numbers is really sales and not sales management
3. Focus on objectives ... maybe more in sales than in sales management .. However, I wil give this a15% or so ...
4. Passion .... I tend to disagree on this one ... and put it more in sales and not in sales management
5. Smart work .... maybe ... but once again ... it is more in sales than in  sales management

What you are missing  - in my opinion - is the link (dependency) between successful sales planning and effective marketing, proper market research, business developent,  your own SWOT analysis homework, value proposal and clear differentiation iversus the competition ... and other things possibly

If you need more in this area, I have my own2-days workshop focusing on sales master from planning to execution !!
