From Selling to Managing

Book description

A compact primer on making the difficult move from a narrow independent workstyle to a host of diverse responsibilities, this guidebook is written in a quick-grasp, conversational style perfect for the new sales manager. In clear, simple terms it shows how to:

* Plan sales force operations efficiently

* Appraise the sales force and operations
* Control operations
* Communicate up and down in the organization
* Recruit and maintain the sales force

From Selling to Managing gives the newly appointed manager everything he or she needs to be a success -- again.
