Most importantly, it involves networking and the ability to connect with the buyers of your products and services.
The Chartered Institute of Marketing, and the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management, are the two bodies that award Sales qualifications. Both institutions provide courses for professionals of all levels, and training ranges from theory to practical skills.
