Sales Executive -Bangalore Office

Sales Executive JD
Sales executive are the key point of contact between an organization and its clients: answering queries, offering advice and introducing new products.
How you contact these clients will change across different companies and roles. If youre an inside sales executive then you will be working from the office or your accommodation if the position is remote. You may be contacting clients via emails, phone and/or video calls. Other sales executives will often combine this type of work with visits to clients – although, as more people get used to working virtually, video calls may replace sales visits for some sales executives.
Their work includes :

• meeting with clients virtually or during sales visits
• demonstrating and presenting products
• establishing new business
• maintaining accurate records
• attending trade exhibitions, conferences and meetings
• reviewing sales performance
• negotiating contracts and packages
• working towards monthly or annual targets.

Promotional prospects can be excellent; progression can be into senior sales roles or into related employment areas such as marketing or management.

Qualification for sales executive:-
There are routes into sales for both university graduates and school leavers. You are more likely to need a degree for a sales executive role within a technical or medical field – and this may need to be relevant to the industry. For example, a subject related to science or medicine could be needed for a sales executive job in the medical or pharmaceutical field. For less specialist areas, if a degree is desirable it is very likely that any subject will be acceptable.
Some big companies in industries such as IT and consumer goods run sales graduate schemes, for which you will probably need a 2.1 in any subject – although some may prefer related subjects. The in-depth understanding of sales gained through these schemes could set you up well for many different sales careers, including sales executive and/or more senior positions.
Whether you’re starting out in a graduate scheme or entry-level role, having some experience of working in a customer-facing environment is likely to be crucial. There are plenty of options for this: perhaps you could get a part-time position in retail or telesales, or carry out an internship in sales.
