Call For Entries – National Sales Awards 2009

Entries for the National Sales Awards 2009 are now open. The Awards give organisations the opportunity to reward those teams and individuals who showcase sales excellence.

Now in its 12th year and as the most prestigious event on the UK sales calendar, the National Sales Awards attracts the key players in the sales industry who celebrate outstanding achievements in sales.

Entries are welcomed from companies across the whole spectrum of the industry and from organisations of all sizes. The deadline for entries is 29 September 2008 with the finalists for each category announced on 9 October 2008.

All categories have been organised in three main groupings so it is easier to find a category to truly fit the entry. The Sales Professionals group covers categories recognising outstanding sales professionals, encompassing account management, field and office sales; the Sales Teams and Organisations group recognises successful contact centres and recruitment agencies; and the Innovation and Excellence group recognises the factors contributing to the success of sales professionals.

The flagship award of the National Sales Awards, ‘The Huthwaite International Sales Team of the Year’, is sponsored by Huthwaite International who continue to support the awards for those who strive for excellence in sales and improving sales performance. This award will be presented to one of the winners of the six Sales Team of the Year awards.

The winners will be announced at the Awards Ceremony on Wednesday 25th February 2009 to be held at The London Hilton on Park Lane.
