Working together with your field sales team, or as a standalone sales function, telephone account management is a key way of keeping in touch with your customer base.

Telephone Account Managers need to understand their part in your sales strategy, be able to set objectives for their accounts, manage their portfolio of accounts, and have meaningful conversations with their allocated accounts that build loyalty, sales and which are of use to customers.
