FAQs

Start by identifying the specific goals you want to achieve. These could be increasing sales, expanding into new markets, or building customer relationships. Make sure the deliverables are specific and time-bound, like 'Increase sales by 20% in six months' or 'Develop three new customer accounts in three months.'
Look for someone with a proven track record in achieving sales targets. They should have good communication skills and the ability to build strong client relationships. Experience in your specific industry can also be a big plus.
Ask for references or case studies from their previous clients, if available. Check any reviews or ratings they have on Contra. Successful sales managers should have a history of meeting or exceeding sales goals.
Include a clear scope of work that outlines tasks and responsibilities. Set timelines for when you expect the deliverables to be completed. Agree on how you will measure success and any specific sales targets or milestones.
Provide a detailed overview of your product or service. Share any existing sales materials or client lists. Introduce them to other team members and explain your company's sales process.
Use project management software to track tasks and progress. Set up regular check-in meetings to discuss goals and challenges. Utilize customer relationship management (CRM) tools to manage leads and sales data effectively.
Analyze your current sales data and market potential. Consider seasonal trends and any new product launches. Discuss these targets with the sales manager to ensure they are achievable yet ambitious.
Set up regular meetings or check-ins, such as weekly updates. Use tools like instant messaging or emails for quick questions. Keep communication lines open for feedback from both sides to address any issues promptly.
