Salesman need PM skills and tools
26th June 2007

With Buyers making greater use of the Internet to buy on-line, is a career in sales doomed?
Not one bit.

In the world of B2B sales people are most valued when selling a "solution" to a client's problem.

Often a "solution" will become a project and sales people will need project management skills to bring all stakeholders together to ensure each project is delivered on time, to spec and within budget.

Alan Sugar whilst dishing out tasks to his Apprentices recognises that selling is a "project" and his program on The BBC shows that a sales person with project management skills taking ownership and responsibility win every time.

"Field Operations", often found in the larger, or multi-national organisations might comprise Sales, Marketing, Service, Engineering, and Applications people. To manage these valuable resources efficiently the Field Ops. Team need project management tools that work with other tools for CRM, Sales Tracking, Sales Force Automation, etc.

Not every one is schooled in Project Management and would be mystified if you mentioned Project Evaluation and Review Techniques (PERT).

So, keep it simple, select a planning package that offers a good visualisation of the project, where everyone can see milestones, logical dependencies and the critical path that leads to satisfied customers and early bonus payments.
