B2B Marketing & Sales Scales
48 validated scales · all free to use
Scales for business-to-business marketing, purchasing and sales research. The domain covers buyer-supplier relationships, supplier flexibility and product quality, active monitoring of supply markets, logistics service quality, multichannel and channel management, and purchasing behaviour. A substantial group of scales measures salesperson perceptions and behaviour, including causal attributions for successful and unsuccessful sales calls, sales force steering, innovation selling and political skill adapted for sales contexts. These instruments are typically completed by managers, buyers or salespeople rather than end consumers, and most report reflective measurement models from organisational samples.
