In the lower socio-economic level of the society, women do more hazardous manual labour than men. Women do more than half of the agricultural works in India. Still, men are considered to be the breadwinners. This sense of women being inferior is passed on from one generation through psychological conditioning. The most widespread and dehumanizing discriminations and assaults against women are on the psychological level. The female psyche is being crushed at the very childhood. The female psyche is brutalized long before bodily violence is inflicted on her. They are conditioned to accept inferior positions in society. Women from childhood undergo a slow unconscious process of destruction or denial of their self-worth. The community creates in girls at home and school-specific thinking patterns through conditioning, ascribed to the female sex an inferior status.
Today, companies are well aware of the significance of sales and attempt to stabilize and/or improve their status in the markets' competitive climate by increasing their sales. The present qualitative research aims to enumerate the factors influencing sales effectiveness using grounded theory to identify the categories underpinning the companies' effectiveness of co-research data collected from 10 experts in Iran's food industry. The collected data were analyzed by coding in the MAXQDA software. Results show that 287 concepts (in terms of repetition) were extracted from the interviews at the first step (open coding). By considering the relationship of the concepts at the axial coding level (the second step), they were narrowed to 26 categories, and final. Finally, they were identified at the third step (selective coding). These themes, i.e., the factors underpinning organizational sales effectiveness, include the firms' strategic orientations, marketing capabilities, sales control management, salesforce performance, and environmental factors. Sales effectiveness was also decomposed into the categories of investment, profitability, market share, and customer satisfaction.
