As major account needs demand more from sales people, many manufacturers have turned to team selling. This approach supports the Resource Manager concept by bringing functional specialists closer to the customer. However, as many manufacturers have discovered, working in account teams does not come naturally to either the sales people or the functional specialists. The result has been less than ideal performance from the teams, high levels of frustration for team members and customers who look elsewhere for help. |
