 Communication is the key: It’s rightly said that quality is always above quantity. Relationships work on this principle.  To ensure effective communication with clients, Sales reps need to work on the following:

Attention works: Choices and preferences vary from person to person. Thus, personalized attention should be given to every customer so that their needs and requirements could be understood and properly catered to.

Technology does work:   Technology should be leveraged to streamline and automate business processes to do away with errors and redundancy caused as a result of human intervention.
