A new set of world-class national sales/telesales standards has been developed by MSSSB to support sales professional practice. The standards, which became available for access in March 2006, were developed over the last two years and were benchmarked against best practice in UK and abroad. A functional map, that describes the key dimensions of the sales profession, can be accessed by clicking here
The fully detailed list of the sales units can be accessed from the National Occupational Standards directory by clicking NOS for Sales. These standards remain valid until a new set is developed following subsequent incremental revisions.
Marketing and Sales Standards for non-specialists have been developed to 'distil' the functions addressed by some 150 units of marketing/sales national occupational standards.
These standards are intended to guide and inform ‘non-specialist’ marketing and sales personnel in best practice across marketing and selling activities relevant to their needs.
It is recognised that many such ‘non-specialists’ are involved in marketing and selling, be they ‘general’ managers within large organisations or such managers and/or proprietors within SMEs.
The fully detailed list of the marketing and sales units for non-specilists can be accessed from the National Occupational Standards directory by clicking NOS for Marketing and Sales non-specialists.
These standards remain valid until a new set is developed following subsequent incremental revisions.
