• Transactional Relationships—each
sale is a separate exchange, and the two parties have little or no interest in maintaining an ongoing relationship. • Functional Relationships—develop when a buyer continues to purchase a product from a seller out of habit. • Strategic Partnership—buyer and seller commit time and money to expand “the pie” for both parties. • Affiliative Selling Relationships—more likely to occur when the buyer needs a significant amount of expertise from the seller and trust is an issue. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 13 Types of Sales RelationshipsTypes of Sales Relationships
14.
• Script-Based or
Canned Selling—Salespeople memorize and deliver sales pitches verbatim. • Needs-Satisfaction Selling—asking questions to identify a buyer’s problems and needs, and then tailoring a sales pitch to satisfy those needs. • Consultative Selling—the seller uses special expertise to solve a complex problem in order to create a somewhat customized solution. • Strategic Partner Selling—both parties invest resources and share their expertise with each other to create solutions that jointly grow one another’s businesses. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 14 Selling StrategiesSelling Strategies
15.
• The sales-strategy
types and relationship types discussed don’t always perfectly match up. • Different strategies might be more appropriate at different times. • When is each method more appropriate? Depends on how the buyer wants to buy, and what information the buyer needs to make a good decision. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 15 Choosing the Right Sales StrategyChoosing the Right Sales Strategy

• Objections are
concerns or reasons not to buy raised by the prospect, and can occur at any time. • Salespeople should probe to find out if the objection represents a misunderstanding or a hidden need. • Typical objections: 1. costs too much 2. don’t need it 3. competitor has a better product 4. don’t have the authority to buy • Resolve objections by addressing each concern. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 17 Overcoming ObjectionsOvercoming Objections
18.
• Closing is
asking for the order. • Trial closes are attempts to lead the buyer to make a decision. • Complex selling situations may require many sales calls. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 18 ClosingClosing
19.
• The four
types of relationships between buyers and sellers are transactional, functional, affiliative, and strategic. • The four basic sales strategies salespeople use are script- based selling, needs-satisfaction selling, consultative selling, and strategic-partnering. • The sales process used to sell products is generally the same regardless of the selling strategy used. • Different selling strategies can be used within different types of relationships. • The strategy chosen will depend on the stage on which the seller is focusing. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 19 Key TakeawaysKey Takeaways

Key TakeawaysKey Takeaways •
The sales cycle is a basic unit of measurement indicating how long it takes to close a sale. • Salespersons who shorten the cycle are able to generate more revenue. • Sales executives track the same metrics as individual salespeople but at the aggregate level. • A firm’s sales trends affect many of the other decisions the company’s executives have to make, including manufacturing and output decisions. • Sales managers also have to manage their company’s selling costs. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 24

Learning Objectives 1. Compare
and contrast common ethical challenges facing salespeople and sales managers. 2. Describe steps companies take to ensure ethical sales activities. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 25 Ethics in Sales and Sales ManagementEthics in Sales and Sales Management
26.
Many of the
most common situations faced by salespeople involve issues such as: 1. A customer asks for information about one of their competitors, who happens to be firm’s customer. 2. How much should you spend on holiday season gifts for your customers. 3. A buyer asks for something special, something not supposed to be provided but could easily be done. 4. No one knows if a salesperson is at work or not, and it is a nice day to play golf but without a prospective customer! ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 26 Common Ethical Issues for SalespeopleCommon Ethical Issues for Salespeople
27.
• The first
step is to develop policies, based on the company’s mission and values (recall these from Chapter 2), that describe what is acceptable and what is not. • Train all salespeople and sales managers on the policy. • Training is to secure greater support and application of the policy. Another reason is that should a salesperson engage in an unethical or illegal activity, the company is protected. • Enforce the policy and have procedures in place that make enforcement possible. • Codes of ethics, policies, and procedures affect all employees. They are not created just because of salespeople. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 27 Company SafeguardsCompany Safeguards
28.
• Sales managers
face the same challenges in managing salespeople that all managers face. • When should an order be recorded for revenue purposes? • Laws that affect sales operations include pricing discrimination, hiring practices, and workplace safety as well as others. • Sales managers should also develop close working relationships with the human resources and legal departments. These professionals are charged with staying abreast of legal changes that influence management practice. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 28 Challenges Facing Sales ManagersChallenges Facing Sales Managers
29.
• Salespeople face
unique ethical challenges because of their job. • American salespeople have the added constraint of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. • Sales managers have all of the usual management concerns, such as fair hiring practices. They also have to develop policies and practices that codify ethical behaviors, train salespeople on the ethics policies. • Sales managers have to be aware of laws such as the Universal Commercial Code and others that govern sales transactions. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 29 Key TakeawaysKey Takeaways

Integrating Sales and
MarketingIntegrating Sales and Marketing Learning Objectives 1. Identify the ways in which the marketing function supports the sales function. 2. Describe how the sales group of a company can support its marketing efforts. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 30

• Marketing Shortens
the Sales Cycle • Marketing provides: Lead Management—the process of identifying and qualifying leads in order to grow new business. Closed-Loop Lead Management—systems that are able to track leads all the way from the point at which the marketer identifies them to when they are closed. Theses systems can result in better investment decisions for marketing managers because they can learn what works—what marketing actions shorten sales cycles and create more sales. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 31 What Marketing Does for SalesWhat Marketing Does for Sales
32.
Lead Scoring—is a
process by which marketing personnel rate the leads to indicate whether a lead is hot (ready to buy now), warm (going to buy soon), or cold (interested but no immediate plans to buy). Marketing personnel can also improve salespeople’s conversions by providing materials that help buyers make good decisions. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 32 Marketing Improves Conversion RatiosMarketing Improves Conversion Ratios by Scoring Leadsby Scoring Leads
33.
• Salespeople talk
to customers every day. They are the “eyes and ears” of their companies. More than anyone else in an organization, they know what customers want. • Salespeople are responsible for voicing their customers’ ideas and concerns to other members of the organization. • Salespeople monitor the competition. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 33 What Sales Does for MarketingWhat Sales Does for Marketing
34.
• Marketing personnel
support a firm’s sales force by shortening the sales cycle and improving conversions. • Lead management and lead scoring help salespeople. • Salespeople support marketing personnel by communicating their customers’ needs and ideas back to the them. • Salespeople are also the first to spot the actions of competing firms. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 34 Key TakeawaysKey Takeaways

Learning Objectives 1. Identify
the primary types of outsourcing salespeople. 2. Characterize the strengths and weaknesses of outsourcing sales groups. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 35 Outsourcing the Sales FunctionOutsourcing the Sales Function

• Companies can
outsource all or part of the sales cycle. • Independent agents are salespeople who are not employees of the company. They are paid on a straight commission basis They set their own hours, determine their own activities Independent agents often sell competing products • Manufacturer’s representatives are agents that sell a manufacturer’s product. They don’t sell competing products. Are already selling to the desired market. • Call centers are examples of outsourcing a portion of the sales cycle. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 36 Types of Outsourced SalespeopleTypes of Outsourced Salespeople
37.
• Advantages Gaining access
to more buyers. Outsourced salespeople have existing relationships. Entering new product or global markets. Outsourcing can be less expensive. Only pays commissions when they sell products. • Disadvantages The primary disadvantage of outsourcing the selling process is loss of control. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 37 Advantages and DisadvantagesAdvantages and Disadvantages of Outsourcingof Outsourcing
38.
• Outsourcing the
sales function can be done through distributors, independent agents, and manufacturers’ representatives. • The entire sales cycle can be outsourced or only parts of it. • Independent agents, distributors, and manufacturers’ representatives often have established relationships that make it easier for a company to enter and penetrate new markets. • Outsourcing the sales function means that a company will lose some control over its sales activities. ©2010 Flat World Knowledge, Inc. 38 Key TakeawaysKey Takeaways
