Internal relationships are important to manage effectively. Co-workers may be busy and know their jobs, but they don't always believe what you say so you need to prove your claims with evidence. Be honest with co-workers about the true situation and own your responsibilities, as how you perform matters. Also, co-workers will discuss you, so be your own best representative. Properly managing internal relationships can result in a tension-free workplace with increased help, stronger sales abilities, more referrals, and shorter sales cycles, whereas poor management may lead to tensions, feeling isolated, struggling to close deals, fewer referrals, longer sales cycles, and less predictable success.
