Relational communication traits and their effect on adaptiveness and sales performance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Michael L. Boorom Jerry R. Goolsby Rosemary P. Ramsey 《Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science》1998,26(1):16-30
Two relational communication traits, communication apprehension and interaction involvement, are investigated within an adaptive
selling framework to assess their impact on salesperson adaptiveness and sales performance. Using a sample of 239 insurance
salespeople, results demonstrate that salespeople exhibiting lower levels of communication apprehension are more highly involved
in communication interactions, and higher involvement facilitates increased adaptiveness and sales performance. This research
highlights the importance of effective communication within sales interactions and offers suggestions to improve salesperson
communication skill.

The role of satisfaction with territory design on the motivation, attitudes, and work outcomes of salespeople 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ken Grant David W. Cravens George S. Low William C. Moncrief 《Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science》2001,29(2):165-178
The primary emphasis of previous research concerning salespeople has been focused on their attitudes and behavior. The relationship
between organizational variables and salesperson attitudes and behavior has received very limited attention. Sales territory
design is largely uncontrollable by the salesperson, yet is acknowledged by managers and researchers as an important factor
enabling salespeople to perform well. The objective is to examine satisfaction with territory design from the perspective
of the salesperson. A conceptual model and hypotheses are developed linking the satisfaction with territory design with role
ambiguity, intrinsic motivation, job satisfaction, and performance. Role conflict, met expectations, organizational commitment,
and intention to leave are also included in the model. Survey results provide strong support for 19 of the 21 hypotheses examined.
The findings offer significant insights concerning the role of territory design satisfaction in face-to-face selling and its
consequences. Several managerial implications and avenues for future research are discussed.

Interest in management control approaches and organizational factors associated with higher levels of salesperson performance
is reflected in research streams concerned with behavior-based control strategies and organizational citizenship behaviors
(OCBs). This study makes two distinct additions to the literature relating to control, organizational citizenship behaviors
and salesperson performance. First, the study distinguishes between salesperson in-role behavior performance and outcome performance
to model in-role behavior performance as a mediator between OCB and outcome performance. Second, the work supports sales manager
control as an antecedent to OCB. A second model introduces perceived organizational support (POS) as an additional antecedent
to salesperson OCB, and more important, as a consequence of sales manager control. This construct has not been included in
prior salesperson OCB studies. Results show sales manage control has a stronger impact on OCB through POS, than directly,
and POS has a strong impact on salesperson OCB.

An empirical test of trust-building processes and outcomes in sales manager-salesperson relationships 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This study examines three trust-building processes and outcomes in sales manager-salesperson relationships. This study, based
on a sample of more than 400 business-to-business salespeoples from a variety of industries, shows two trust-building processes
(predictive and identification) to be significantly related to salesperson trust in the sales manager. Interpersonal trust
was found to be most strongly related to shared values and respect. Trust was directly related to job satisfaction and relationalism,
and indirectly related to organizational commitment and turnover intention.

Emotional exhaustion is a potentially important construct in examining sales force behavior and attitude relationships. A
conceptual model and hypotheses are developed to study the antecedents and consequences of the emotional exhaustion construct.
The hypotheses are tested using LISREL 7 to analyze data from a sample of field salespeople from a large international services
organization. The empirical results offer strong support for relationships involving role ambiguity and conflict antecedents
and organizational commitment, job satisfaction, performance, and intention-to-leave consequences of emotional exhaustion.

Several leading models of ethical decision making include factors contributing to an organization’s ethical climate as significant
determinants affecting ethical choice. The relationship of ethical climate to ethical conflict and role conflict is examined
in a salesperson context. Results suggest that salespersons’ perceptions of a positive ethical climate are negatively associated
with their perceived ethical conflict with sales managers. Implications and directions for future research are provided.

Although social values have been used increasingly in consumer research, their utility in sales management research has received
little attention. Using a national sample of industrial salespeople, the authors evaluate several hypotheses, developed from
social adaptation theory and a theoretical framework of values domain, regarding the incremental ability of the List of Values
(LOV) to predict salesperson performance beyond adaptive selling (ADAPTS) and customer orientation (SOCO). The LOV shows promise
as a tool by which salesperson performance can be predicted. Managerial implications are discussed, and suggestions for future
research are presented.

Psychological climate, empowerment, leadership style, and customer-oriented selling: An analysis of the sales manager-salesperson dyad 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study examined antecedents and performancerelated consequences of customer-oriented selling. The antecedents include
sales managers’ leadership styles, psychological empowerment, and the psychological climates of organizations. Data were gathered
on two separate performance outcome measures. Responses from 106 sales managers and 313 sales representatives were analyzed.
The results indicate that transformational leadership, empowerment, and specific components of the psychological climate are
important predictors of customer-oriented selling.

This article proposes a model of the impact of goal difficulty and goal specificity on selling behaviors (selling effort,
adaptive selling, and sales planning) and hence sales and behavior performance. The model suggests that goal-setting factors
may have opposing effects on different sales behaviors. The empirical findings suggest that goal difficulty positively influences
selling effort while negatively influencing adaptive selling behaviors. The results show that goal difficulty and goal specificity
both have opposite effects on the two dimensions of working smart: adaptive selling and sales planning. The findings support
the need for sales managers to account for the cultural context of the salesperson when determining optimal goal-setting strategies.
With data collected from salespeople in the United States and China, the cross-cultural differences regarding the effects
of goal-setting factors are also proposed and empirically supported.

The issue of whether salespeople cope with sales stressors in ways consistent with their personality characteristics remains
largely unaddressed in the empirical literature. Should certain personality characteristics make salespeople more stress resistant,
implications for the selection of sales candidates already possessing such characteristics or for the cultivation of such
characteristics within existing salespeople could be developed. A framework is developed suggesting why salespeople with certain
personality characteristics—those high on challenge, self-determination, and involvement in self and surroundings—may employ
different coping strategies. Support for hypotheses was developed in a study that used a stratified random sample of 322 sales
organizations. Salespeople high on challenge, self-determination, and involvement were found to use more problem-focused coping
strategies.

The authors examine how the practice of personal selling and sales management is changing as a result of the increased attention
on long-term, buyer-seller relationships and identify some implications of these changes. Changes in the traditional personal
selling and sales management activities are needed to support the emergence of the part-nering role for salespeople. For salespeople
in the part-nering role, the personal selling shifts from a focus on influencing buyer behavior to managing the conflict inherent
in buyer-seller relationships. The emphasis on building relationships rather than making short-term sales and the use of sales
teams dictates changes in the way firms select, train, evaluate, and compensate salespeople and members of sales teams. In
this article, the authors have suggested some issues concerning the emerging partnering role for salespeople that deserve
the attention of scholars interested in personal selling and sales management research.

Re-examining salesperson goal orientations: Personality influencers, customer orientation, and work satisfaction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Eric G. Harris John C. Mowen Tom J. Brown 《Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science》2005,33(1):19-35
Several scholars have noted the importance of relationship marketing and the critical role that salesperson knowledge plays
in the formation of buyer-seller relationships. However, research on salesperson learning motivations has been relatively
scarce compared with research on firm-level learning orientations. One promising stream of research in this area is salesperson
goal orientation. Drawing from previous work in control theory, the authors extend previous research in this area by proposing
relationships between personality influencers, goal orientations, customer/selling orientation, and overall work satisfaction.
Their hypotheses are tested using data obtained from a sample of 190 real estate agents. The results provide support for their
hypothesized model. Specifically, learning orientation is shown to positively influence customer orientation, while performance
orientation is shown to positively influence selling orientation.

The effects of extrinsic product cues on consumers’ perceptions of quality, sacrifice, and value 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The authors report the results of two experiments designed to test the effects of extrinsic cues—price, brand name, store
name, and country of origin—on consumers’ perceptions of quality, sacrifice, and value. The results of the experiments support
hypothesized linkages between (a) each of the four experimentally manipulated extrinsic cues and perceived quality, (b) price
and perceived sacrifice, (c) perceived quality and perceived value, and (d) perceived sacrifice and perceived value. The results
also indicate that the linkages between the extrinsic cues and perceived value are mediated by perceived quality and sacrifice.

An increasing number of firms are sharing a sales force between multiple divisions of their companies. Although this practice
may increase organizational efficiency by reducing unit selling costs, it is not clear how it affects outcomes at the level
of the individual salesperson. This study examines the effects of sharing a sales force between multiple divisions on salespeople’s
role perceptions, satisfaction, and performance. The results indicate that sharing is associated with higher levels of role
stress and lower levels of work satisfaction and nonfinancial performance. The association between sharing and financial performance
is not significant. Formalization and centralization of the sales organization moderate the relationships between sharing
and the outcome variables. Higher levels of formalization lessen the effects of sharing on salespeople’s role conflict, role
ambiguity, and work satisfaction. Conversely, higher levels of centralization exacerbate the effects of sharing on role ambiguity
and work satisfaction.

The use of trade promotions as a channel-programming tool has increased substantially in the past decade. In focusing on the
tactical implications of trade promotions, some firms appear to have underestimated the tendency of poorly planned trade promotions
to interfere with the implementation of a marketing strategy. In this article, the authors examine the complex issue of trade
promotion use from both long-term and short-term perspectives. Different trade promotions can produce dissimilar types of
channel cooperation, consumer responses, and postpromotion channel member behavior, resulting in differences in distribution-programming
preferences between suppliers and retailers. The authors argue that the adjudication of these different preference structures
is addressed through the market power of the channel participants. Based on an assessment of these channel relationships,
an approach for suggested courses of action is forwarded.

the specific nature of the coping tactics used by salespeople to deal with job-related stress and the use of certain coping
strategies associated with sales presentation effectiveness of salespeople were investigated. Data provided by salespeople
from three organizations were used to assess the degree to which specific coping strategies were related to sales presentation
effectiveness.

This study examines salesperson stereotypes and their effect on the selling environment. After reviewing relevant literature,
the authors advance a hierarchical structure of salesperson stereotype categories. Experimental results suggest that stereotypes
influence consumer emotions, and these emotions then mediate the relationship between stereotype activation and subsequent
consumer cognitions.

The moderating role of the price frame on the effects of price range and the number of Competitors on consumers’ search intentions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Internet and Internet shopping agents (ISAs) are likely to have a substantial impact on the way consumers shop and conduct
price searches. This article examines how the price frame (the relative position of a retailer’s price presented by ISAs)
moderates the effects of the price range and the number of competitors carrying a product on consumers’ search intentions.
Building on prospect theory and range theory, the authors predicted that the effects of price range and the number of competitors
on consumers’ search intentions would be more pronounced in a negative price frame than in a positive price frame. The results
of two experiments provide support for these predictions.

This paper explores the directions of causality between selected work-related variables and quitting intentions. Based on
the premise that quitting intentions may stem from predispositions that affect work-related variables, longitudinal data collected
from a direct sales population were analyzed. When compared with previous literature, the results show the existence of reverse
causality, indicating that quitting intentions are more likely to effect the perceptions of such variables as organizational
climate, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment.
