A Sales Agent is a professional who sells products or services on behalf of a company. They often work directly with customers to understand their needs and provide solutions that meet those needs. Sales agents can operate in various industries, including real estate, insurance, and retail, and they may work independently or as part of a sales team. Sales agents typically earn a commission based on their sales performance, which incentivizes them to close deals and build strong customer relationships. They may also be responsible for generating leads, conducting market research, and maintaining customer records to track sales activities and outcomes.
