Carlos obtained Fournier’s approval to implement “Telesales” (i.e., Carlos’s renamed version of Dubai’s Telemarketing). Telesales was successful within a year of launch. Success factors were: project’s IT aspect; salespeople’s acceptance of using computers; salespeople not resisting potential added control of Telesales; and offering of a complete package.

Fournier rejected Carlos’ request to re-implement Wave II. Carlos visited Colombia and Dubai to determine whether to apply their telephone selling approach (“Telemarketing”) elsewhere. Carlos had to decide whether to tell Fournier of Dubai’s revolutionary tool that could transform Rank Xerox’s sales operations or put the idea aside.
