What does a virtual sales representative do?

As a virtual sales representative, you market a product or service through online services. Your primary responsibilities are to sell your product or service to new and returning customers and provide any assistance upon them purchasing it. You follow up with new prospects or leads, call potential customers, contact previous buyers to follow up on their purchases, schedule appointments via email or phone, and answer any customer questions. A virtual sales representative can work in a variety of industries and may work from home or a company location, depending on your employer and duties.
