Purpose of a Sales Plan

A respected business executive, Sanders “Timothy” Wallis is the president of Wallis Printing Company. In this position, Sanders Wallis guides the company on marketing materials, organizational structure, and strategic business and sales plans.

A sales plan is a business strategy that helps organize sales targets and tactics in a comprehensive manner, thus providing managers with an approach regarding how to attain their targets. Often, a sales plan is used together with a marketing plan to help direct the efforts of the sales team. Many businesses revise and update their sales plan on a regular basis, typically every six or 12 months.

Essentially, a sales plan activates, motivates, and draws points of focus for the sales team. Aside from the aforementioned functions, sales plans also put the budgets of corporations into consideration and devise strategies around specific budget areas. Also, businesses can conveniently evaluate and assess their approach to sales through sales plans.
