Task Two:

You will need to make at least one posting to the Discussion Board in FOL although more are welcome. Please answer this question;

Having read the various article points and statistics do you think there is still an argument for Sales in such a modern complex and fast-moving world? Please explain your stance and why you think the way you do. Include what trend or issue has had the most impact on the role of the Sales Professional in your opinion. You can submit an issue/trend that is not covered or discussed in the articles. You can post your answer to this question as a response to someone else's post.

I want your thoughts!........which means I really want more than a "ditto" or "I agree"......if you agree with someone else's post then elaborate on why you agree.
