The goal of any organization is to make sales systematic. All too often, Sales operates as an independent business unit, receiving little institutional support. To make sales systematic the team must be fully integrated into the organization and supported by every department and business unit—making for a robust, resource-rich Sales infrastructure. In sum, it’s about creating a Sales culture that permeates every layer and aspect of the business operation.
 Challenge: Integrating an organization’s disparate parts—all departments and business units—toward the creation of a well-prepared and fully equipped Sales force.
- Is bringing in new business the sole responsibility of Sales?
- Is your Sales cycle too long?
- Is your Sales pipeline running low and being fed sporadically?
- Is your ROI from Sales low—in other words, are you investing too much in making a sale and not reaping sufficient return?
- Is your Sales message inconsistent with your company’s mission and vision?
- Is your organization—perhaps even the CEO—limited in product knowledge?
 Solution: If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s likely that Sales operates independently within your organization. However, Sales needs to be tightly integrated within your organization to ensure that your salespeople are fully supported with the tools and processes they need to succeed. Seven organizational functions contribute to a successful Sales process, including:
1. Product Development
2. Marketing
3. Proposal
4. Pricing
5. Lead Generation
6. Sales
7. Account Management/Customer Service Strategic Sales Solutions works with each client and a team of their key employees from each functional area to assess current processes, identify areas for improvement, and implement a strategic business process that makes Sales an organizational objective. The result is a strategic process infused with and supported by a Sales culture that keeps the Sales pipeline filled, shortens the Sales cycle, and increases revenue.
