Find out what is the function or task that corresponds to the seller today.

Currently, the role of the vendor or the task that he or she is required to carry out, is no longer just to sell and provide good customer service (as some thought and still think), but to carry out a "set of activities" that allow them to achieve certain objectives.

comments that These objectives are usually: retain current customers, attract new customers, achieve certain sales volumes, maintain or improve participation in your sales area, generate a certain profit or benefit, among others.
