What is the difference between sales and marketing?

  • just wanna know the difference of these two tasks, am having confusion, pls. help. thanks.

  • Answer:

    Sales is either at the counter or at the desk of the person making the actual representation of the business to sell the product. Such as, at the check-out stand, at the telemarketer desk, so on. Marketing is the process of educating and enlightening people about products and services. Advertising, for instance, is a department in Marketing. Marketing on the railroads can include negotiating special tariff rates for highly-valued customers with other railroads, communicating with customers about how to improve service while cutting costs to the railroad and lowering tariff charges to the customer to encourage them to ship more often. This is only a basic explanation. Hope I helped.

Sales are the action that will bring the money in, positive cashflow. Marketing is the campaign that you done in order to bring in the sales, and usually cost some money, in other words, negative cash flow. Hope that helps. I would like you to have a look at the video tutorials that is available on the website I just saw recently. All the best! :)

The term varies form company to company and industry. Sales - Primary responsibilities are business development. The role requires you to either sell products, services and/or concepts to either the public or business Marketing - has more of a communications slant. You help with the visual, audio, written concepts of the product or service. For example... A Girl Scout selling cookies door to door is in sales, however the person that put the book together that outlines the cookies she is selling would be in marketing.
