Abstract: This paper explores the impact of digital transformation on sales practices. It emphasizes how businesses adopt new digital technologies to enhance efficiency, customer engagement, and overall business outcomes. Digital transformation involves both digitalizing analog processes and leveraging innovative technologies like artificial intelligence and automation in sales operations. Some companies have successfully integrated digital tools to improve B2B sales effectiveness and profitability. However, challenges persist, including organizational resistance and the need for updated managerial practices and performance metrics. The main contribution of this paper is the identification of changes in sales caused by digital transformation. Despite these changes and challenges, digital transformation in sales signifies a shift towards more consultative and adaptive sales approaches. This shift necessitates a re-evaluation of traditional sales practices and a proactive embrace of technologica l advancements for sustained competitive advantage in dynamic markets. (More)
