Available options:

A. determine the sequence in which customers will be called on.

B. use existing transportation facilities.

C. minimize non-selling time.

D. determine duration of sales calls.

E. provide salespeople with an opportunity to plan their own routes and schedules

Answer:

Option C. Minimizing non-selling time.
