Return on sales investment is what every businessman expects on capital invested and a positive return is desirable. Marketing is an important part of a business. This is what informs the customer base of your product. A sales team therefore is necessary. Their expertise is important as it shows the awareness and state of penetration of your product to the general public. A marketer’s work is to help the customer by reminding him of the product, informing those who were not aware and helping them make the right decision which of course is the choice of your product.

In light of the importance of the sales team, you might feel the need of measuring their activity level and gauge whether they have a positive impact on set investments. Your fear might be you view them as a risk to your establishment never sure whether they will deliver your needed impact to the public. Well, trust to your employees is vital and a need to have qualified and experienced sales team who are well versed with marketing strategies is very important. This is where total commitment comes in.
