Sales Force Structure
Territorial structure
Product or market
structure
Sales Force Size—Workload
Approach
1.
Group customers into size classes by annual sales volume.
2.
Establish call frequencies for each customer class (number of
calls per year).
3.
Multiply the number of accounts in each size class by the call
frequencies (determines total work load or sales calls per
year).
4.
Determine the average number of calls a sales rep can make
per year.
5.
Divide the total annual calls (step 3) by the average annual
calls made by a rep (step 4) to determine how many reps are
needed.
