Are marketing and sales the same?

[astutimeliana723]

I think there is a difference between sales and marketing. Product-oriented sales with the aim of increasing sales. Meanwhile, customer-oriented marketing, namely by conducting promotions and advertisements. So that product information is conveyed properly and on target.

Or simply selling is carrying out activities of selling products to customers, while marketing carries out activities to promote and introduce products to customers. Actually, the two complement each other, but in large companies, sales and marketing employees each have their own tasks. What do you think?

Sales are the result of your marketing. If you market your products well, expect high turnover which would also mean high profit. It is good to market your products on a social media site to get volume sales, thus big money follows.

I think, there's a bit difference between the marketing and sales, as marketing has to do with your ability to unravel and introduce the products or services to potential customers, while sales the effect or results not your marketing.

Look at it this way, Sales puts money in your pockets and Marketing takes part of it back out to make attempts to produce even more Sales.

The sweet part about the Interenet, is you can accomplish what Marketing you need for FREE, so you end up with more money in your pocket with less cost of sales needed to produce it.
