Description
This book examines key aspects of selling and the sale of goods and services in B2C and B2B. Renowned scholars and practitioners contributed their expertise with a wide range of articles about how to serve customers and the role of selling and sales. Their research results and practical experiences can be used as a basis for further research as well as implemented by small, medium-sized and globally operating companies.
The 13 chapters are organized in four parts, starting with (I) value creation and selling services, followed by (II) business negotiations and sales in B2B, (III) using technology and innovation to increase sales and study consumers, and finishing with two chapters about sales competencies on the one hand and a critical piece about consumption on the other hand under (IV) selling more or consuming less?
The European perspective adopted in the book provides both international researchers and entrepreneurs, as well as those already working in Europe, with a better understanding of the market and the dynamics in the consumer and business sectors.
