Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A sales process is a systematic approach to selling a product or service. A growing body of published literature approaches the sales process from the point of view of an engineering discipline (see sales process engineering)[1].

Reasons for having a well thought-out sales process include seller and buyer risk management, standardized customer interaction in sales, and scalable revenue generation. A major advantage of approaching the subject of sales from a "process point of view" is that it offers a host of well-tested design and improvement tools from other successful disciplines and process oriented industries[2]. In turn, this offers potential for quicker progress. Quality expert Joseph Juran observed, "There should be no reason our familiar principles of quality and process enginnering would not work in the sales process"[3]. A sales team's fundamental job is to move a greater number of larger deals through the sales process in less time.[4]

Specific steps or stages in a sales process vary from company to company but generally include the following elements

Mapping a process provides a starting point for further careful analysis and continuous improvement[5]. Diagramming a process flow is considered to be one of the seven basic quality improvement toolsf[6]. Elements in the list above (among many others) have been described and/or flowcharted in the published literature. Some examples have primarily focused on functions performed by a sales "department"[7]. At least one cross-functional approach depicts and integrates a variety of interdependent areas, such as sales, marketing, customer service, and information systems[8].

2. Grog!
November 20, 2009

I watched her skillful hands do the seemingly impossible. From a cold, moist lump of clay emerged a beautiful and functional piece of art. The whir of her potter's wheel lulled me as I watched her clay-covered hands cooperate with the spinning wheel to create the formless lump into an exquisite bowl. From the wheel to the drying rack to the kiln to the art show or sales shelf - the process never ceased to amaze me. But what shocked and surprised me even more was what she did with the inevitable broken or damaged piece. I have marveled for years at the creative expression within such art... (read more)

8. Developing the Customer Social Network
November 19, 2009

Consumer expectations have long defined the business world as a whole. Decades ago, meeting those expectations was a relatively simple process. The balance of power was clearly on the side of the company. While a consumer might bother to complain or praise the company to his or her neighbor, little could be accomplished on a mass scale, and that meant that the company literally owned all of the information necessary to hone their marketing techniques.
