I am making a move to another company. I am coming on as a Sales Manager. Its a new postion with the company. They have 2 sales reps plus and independent. The sales staff spends all there time on the road visiting Accounts. I have been in Modular Home Building for 11 years and Sales for the last three. I am used to having an office to go to everyday and spending most of my time there. I do travel from time to time.

So I have been thinking about the difference. I can see where the sales staff could spend all their time traveling from account to account but as a Sales Manager I think my time would be better spent phone calling accounts, researching new prospects, analysing sales data ect... All of this would need to be done in an office setting.

Should I suggest that I spend 2 or three days a week in the office and the other on the road or keep my mouth shut and do the office work from home?
