10. What is Sales Territory?
A sales territory is the customer group or geographical
area for which an individual salesperson or a sales team
holds responsibility. Territories can be defined on the
basis of geography, sales potential, history, or a
combination of factors. Companies strive to balance their
territories because this can reduce costs and increase
sales.
12. Purpose
The purpose of a sales force coverage (or sales territory)
metric is to create balanced sales territories. There are a
number of ways to analyze territories. "Most commonly,
territories are compared on the basis of their potential or
size. This is an important exercise. If territories differ
sharply or slip out of balance, sales personnel may be given
too much or too little work. This can lead to under- or over-
servicing of customers."
13. Construction
"In defining or redefining territories, companies strive to
balance workloads, balance sales potential, develop
compact territories, and minimize disruptions during the
redesigns. These goals can have different effects on
different stakeholders. . . . Before designing new territories,
a sales force manager should evaluate the workloads of all
members of the sales team."

of the sales manger overseeing the larger sales units within
the organization.

The sales reporting includes the key performance indicators of the sales
force.

is being operated effectively and achieves the results as set forth in sales
planning. It should enable the sales managers to take timely corrective
action. It also allows senior management to evaluate the sales manager.
Sales reporting can provide metrics for sales management compensation.
Rewarding the best managers without accurate and reliable sales reports is
not objective.
Also, sales reports are made for internal use for top management. Finally,
sales reports are required for investors, partners and government, so the
sales management system should have advanced reporting capabilities to
satisfy the needs of different stakeholders.
