    Krishna Kumar is the marketing manager of MM Marketing Company which is launching a new table fan product called Swishflow. As the marketing manager, he needs to design sales territories and assign salespeople in major cities in Maharashtra and Gujarat. He also needs to set sales quotas based on sales volume, selling expenses, and sales calls per day to monitor the salespeople. If I were Krishna Kumar, I would use the build-up and breakdown approaches to design fair sales territories that equalize workload. I would assign salespeople based on their abilities and effectiveness in each territory. Finally, I would set quotas on sales volume, expenses, and calls to control performance and motivate salespeople through compensation plans.

    MM Marketing Company is a marketing company going to launch a new

    attractive air conditioner like looks.
    I as a marketing manager planning to design sales territories , assigning
    salespeople and setting sales quotas in the major metros and cities in
    Maharashtra and Gujarat ,as because the marketing and sales office is
    located in Mumbai.
    The target consumer were household as well as commercial organisations ,

    SALES TERRITORIES / MARKET

    • A sales territory consists of existing and potential customers,

    assigned to a salesperson.

    • Most companies allot salespeople to geographic territories, consisting

    of current & prospective customers.

    • Basic Concept of Sale Market is made up of present and potential

    customers rather than geographic area.
