Individuals who sell products and services such as material handling equipment, numerical-control machinery and computer systems whose installation and optimal use require considerable technical expertise and support. They provide information about their firm's products, help prospective buyers and current customers with technical problems, recommend improved materials and machinery for a firm's manufacturing process, design plans of proposed machinery layouts, estimate cost savings and suggest training schedules for employees. In a process that may take several months, they present this information and negotiate the sale. They may also assist in the development of custom-made machinery and frequently work with both the customer and the production, engineering or research and development departments of their company to determine how products and services could be designed or modified to best suit the customer's needs.
