English translation:business approach
Explanation:
I think that here the suggestion is being made, none too subtly, that the company change its way of doing business, or its approach to the customer. This is broader than "marketing" and less formal than "policy". Hope this helps! It could also easily apply even if the point is to refer to aspects of diong business that fit more closely with the conventional way in which this phrase "politique commerciale" is normally used: trade policy.

Explanation:
"it is recommended to change your company's trading policy" might be a solution, but Sergiy's suggestion is just as good.

Explanation:
Just another alternative. I think we're more likely to talk about 'strategies' than policies in a business context.
