The recent global economic meltdown has brought to the limelight, as well as the reality, that the world is a global market (Banabo & Ndiomu, 2011). Nigeria has a history of post-colonial agrarian economy and is now heavily dependent on the oil and gas economy (Ahiauzu, 2010). Efforts are now being made to diversify the economy by investing for example in agriculture and also encouraging the manufacturing sector. However, entrepreneurship-led development strategies are now being emphasised as these have proven successful in several Less Developed Countries (LCDs). The Nigerian economy which used to thrive on agr...

In recent years, Sales Management has changed more rapidly as a practice and profession than ever before.  A lot of this has to do with the rapid disruption in the sales industry and a transition to Inside Sales, which as a model is much more measurable and transaction driven.
