Abstract
This chapter outlines the features of performance measurement systems for value-based selling when pursuing a solution business strategy. We argue for three main features of such performance measurement systems: systemic, customer relationship, and sales outcome performance measurement. Further, we identify that the value-based selling process requires input from strategic performance measurement processes for solution business and that the value-based selling process serves as a data-gathering process for strategic performance measurement. Through the outlined features, this chapter provides a basis for further development and implementation of performance measurement systems in solution business strategy and value-based selling. The main managerial contribution is to provide a basis for evaluating firms’ existing performance measurement systems as part of a solution business strategy, along with recommendations for the first implementation.
