it depends upon the company's structure. If both departments exists, corporate should be with sales and dealer acquisition should be with business development

Hi Ibrahim,

 

Good evening. In my opinion, ideally it should belong to Business development. Since Business development team has to focus on current performance of the company, locate potential market either to start or enhance business etc. whereas sales  teams task is to make the sell happen, customer satisfaction etc. But again it depend on organization, from automobile industries aspect some organization retain this task with Business development team where other retain this target with Dealer development team.
