Hello Colleagues.
I'm curious to hear how your group sales operations works in your organisations and I have a few simple questions.
The reason why I'm asking is that our in-house phone services handles all incoming groups sales calls on a non-commission basis. My goal is to create a position that will develop a group sales/concierge service program from ground up. This would entail a lot of outbound calling/emailing/letter writing in generating leads in order to establish a network of partners to reach out to and engage throughout the season. Lot's of relationship building.
Thanks,
Michael
I would also be interested in hearing from anyone about how you structure your Group Sales departments - we're in a similar process of potentially expanding to include an outbound sales position for this! (Acknowledging that we can't discuss commission rates or specific pricing per Todd's reply below). If anyone is willing to share their general structure/policies that would be great!
