A sales representative is responsible for selling products or services to customers. They identify potential customers, conduct sales presentations, and maintain relationships with existing customers. They also collect feedback to optimize the product offering, and work closely with the marketing team to develop sales strategies.
The position of sales representative usually requires training in sales or a related field, and a university degree in business administration or a similar field is often preferred, combined with experience in sales.
Sales representatives can work in a variety of industries, including retail, technology and healthcare, and with experience and proven success, they can rise to leadership positions, such as sales manager or account manager.
