Vice presidents of sales oversee the sales department of a company. They develop sales goals and strategies designed to meet or exceed growth projections set by senior executives in sales, product development, marketing, and accounting. As a vice president of sales, your job duties include assessing your sales team's production and successful transactions, analyzing current sales processes, strategizing with sales department heads to increase sales figures and profits, and training employees in new products and services the company offers. For larger or high-profile clients, you may be involved in the sales pitch and negotiations with your sales team. You also create reports for the company's top executives on the performance of the sales staff and quarterly sales projections.
