Main results The analysis of the literature and the results of the research showed that the prospects for the development of the relationship sales process are significantly high, especially this aspect has become quite important during the pandemic and VUCA times and enterprises are increasingly interested in creating the relationship sales process in their daily business activities. Implications for theory and practice The research confirmed that there is a significant relationship between increasing the efficiency of the enterprise’s operations, financial liquidity, the effectiveness and continuity of the basic processes of the daily functioning of the company, creating long-term business relationships and obtaining important data for the company, and the company’s participation in the use of relationship sales. This relationship is illustrated by the fact that without building relationship sales, in the modern world of crises, aimed at achieving goals, innovation, cooperation and communication, it is impossible to build effective and efficient cooperation with the stakeholders of the organization.
