ABSTRACT
The project work deals with the impact of personal selling on the sales volume of an organisation and an attempt is made to have an insight into Unilever Nigeria Plc Kaduna branch. The study centers on finding out the extent which the tool has a positive effect on sales volume of the organisation. The personal selling effort is responded to favourably by the consumers and company distributors because salesmen can be more persuasive and are hard to dismiss. Thus, the medium was chosen because of its full acceptance and support in achieving company goals and objectives. Also salesmen can adapt to the various needs of their customers and can tailor their messages to diverse characteristics.
