While we expect Salespeople to drive sales, we encourage our sales training partners in Vancouver, Victoria, Edmonton and Calgary to entice all staff to become sales-minded. This can be a great source of new business development by identifying the personal motivators of employee recognition and rewards. It encourages everyone to have a customer-focused attitude and look for opportunities to grow company sales as a team.
No one would argue this point – regardless of job description, we are all indirectly employed in Sales. The only difference between team members is how we are paid for the work we perform.
The job description for Salespeople is simple to understand – you will be evaluated and paid according to your ability to close sales. The motivator comes in the form of a commission or bonus based on performance.
