This study explores the roles that salesperson characteristics and influence tactics play in converting customer commitments to sales fulfillments. A sample of 258 salesperson-customer interactions revealed that, by offering recommendations and exchanging information with customers, salespeople can increase the propensity for fulfillment of customers' purchase commitments. Conversely, it was discovered that salespeople fail to convert commitments into fulfillments when they utilize threats, promises, ingratiation, or inspirational tactics. Additionally, long-term orientation, customer orientation, and adaptive selling behaviors were not found to have an impact on the commitment-fulfillment relationship.
