Sales are transversal to various economic sectors and are the engine of organizations regardless of their size. It is mainly through sales that the enterprise tends to achieve revenues that allow its operation and its growth. For enterprises to be able to maximize sales, there is a need to have an integrated vision at the various levels of management – strategic, tactical, operational – but also to tune the commercial area with the other functional areas existing in the organization. With the development of marketing, especially of the digital component, the alignment between sales and marketing assumes increasing importance to expand the possibilities of conversion. The evolution of technology has also been promoting changes in the sales process, which provides new opportunities for enterprises, but also challenges with implications at various levels, including processes and human resources.
