The responsibilities of an international sales manager (ISM) include maximizing sales revenue in existing markets, expanding sales into new territories, and researching trends to develop accurate sales projections. As an ISM, you must develop a business plan for customer acquisition in multiple markets that meet the company’s global sales quotas and profitability goals. You supervise a team of sales professionals and work together to prepare action plans for individuals and the team to find new sales leads effectively. Other duties include setting competitive pricing while striving to maintain maximum profit margins. You also keep records of pricing, all products or services sold, and other activities for each country. Sales manager positions are available in both the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) industries. The career typically requires international travel.
