Just another option:

=TEXT(EOMONTH(TODAY(),1),"mmm") & " Sales"

Default Text Formula

If you put the formula =MONTH(TODAY())+1 in a cell, and format it first as a
number (or general) and then as a date, then you may see what is going
wrong.
Then try the same with =DATE(YEAR(TODAY(),MONTH(TODAY())+1,1)
