Since its a sales role, first get an idea of the company and its industry and typically what it sells like is it into software services, or do they have software products , what technology they focus etc...
Also while responding to questions try to align your thoughts to IT industry with a sales pitch ...
Also get an idea about the industry and the territory ( if you know) you are interviewed for.
Get an idea about how sales works in an IT industry as the challenges and lead time in IT industry is different from other industries.
