Our CEO, Nikolaus Kimla, has written a guide for sales managers — advice as they set about the job of creating efficient and competent sales teams. In this endeavor, Nikolaus takes the position that your sales environment is similar to a war room, with salespeople the troops and sales process your battle plan.
Running a sales force is like leading a (hopefully not physical) war against your competitors. The prize is new prospects, new customers, sales, customer retention, and market share.
