Sales are the foundation of a company's business. Without the sale of a product or service, there is no revenue. Some sales are quick, such as the sale of french fries to a fast food customer. Other sales require more steps and time in the sales flow process.
Quote
For more in-depth sales, the first step of a sales process is the quote. The quote helps the buyer decide whether or not he will purchase the product and it allows the buyer to lock in a specific price.
Sale
If the customer decides to purchase the product, the quote can be converted into a sale. If a quote was unnecessary, the business simply makes the sale and receives payment for the product or invoices the customer.
Product Delivery
The product is delivered to the customer after the sale is finalized. In the case of machinery, it may be shipped in several weeks, while fast food is delivered in a few minutes.
Invoice
If the product is not paid for at the time of sale, the company invoices the customer. When the customer pays the invoice, the sales process is complete.
