Salespeople’s innovativeness: a driver of sales performance

Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to develop a conceptual model for explaining the process of how salespeople’s innovativeness leverages sales performance by introducing the organizational learning-based factors such as sales team tacit knowledge exchange, value-based selling capability, and a positive selling ambiance initiative in the selling process to enhance sales performance. The novelty of this study is its construction of a conceptual model that adopts the organizational learning framework both in cultivating the organizational memory of salespeople working in a sales organization and in processing organizational memory for leveraging capabilities that lead to better sales performance. The acceptance of the proposed hypotheses demonstrated the importance of organizational learning-based factors in supporting the success of salespeople in the consumer product market.
