Personal Selling and Sales Promotion

The Nature of Personal Selling Personal Selling: Personal presentation by a firm’s sales force for the purpose of making sales and building customer relationships Salespeople are no longer the typical sales people stereotypes we used to think Today, buying is about more than the transaction Sales is about building customer relationships through a focus on differentiation and linking these to customer’s realisation of value Salespeople vary from order takers, to order getters, and relationship builders

The Role of The Sales Force Advertising consists of non personal communication whereas personal selling is interpersonal Personal selling involves interpersonal interactions between salespeople and customers Personal selling allows the opportunity to probe and adjust marketing to fit customer needs Personal selling varies from different companies In services orientated companies, sales team works directly with customers In FMCG environment, sales team is more behind the scenes and works with intermediaries
