what is sales & marketting?

Answer 1

Sales-
Sales, or the activity of selling, forms an integral part of commercial activity. Mastering sales is considered by many as some sort of persuading "art". On the contrary, the methodological approach of selling, refers to it as a systematic process of repetitive and measurable milestones, by which a salesperson relate his offering enabling the buyer to visualize how to achieve his goal in an economic way. ...
`Selling' is the heart beat of any business. No business can function without professional sales people. Dubious selling practices may occasionally result in a sale if the customer is particularly gullible. But it is arguable that, even then, only good marketing, great quality of product along with sales follow up (which encompasses a far wider range of skills, with an almost diametrically opposed motivation) 'will lead the customer to buy again from the same company '. Organizations seldom profit from single purchases made by first-time customers. Normally they rely on repeat business to generate the profit that they need.

Marketing-Traditionally, "marketing" has been a term applied to the craft of linking the producers (or potential producers) of a product or service with customers, both existing and potential. This general definition fails to provide any direction to someone hoping to market his products or services effectively. With that, a more modern explanation of what marketing is...
-selling: the exchange of goods for an agreed sum of money
the commercial processes involved in promoting and selling and distributing a product or service.
-
the process of making customers aware of products and services, attracting new customers to a product or service, keeping existing customers interested in a product or service, building and maintaining a customer base for a product or service. Advertisements play a large part in marketing.
....all the best.

Answer 2

marketing involves understanding the customer and consumer behaviour. (Customer is one who buys the product/service and consumer is one who uses or consumes it. The two may also be different. e.g. when a mother buys a toy for her child, she is the customer but the child is the consumer). After developing an understanding of the consumers and customers, marketers incorporate features into their product or service which will attract customers to their product or service over and above their competitors'.

Sales is selling the product/service designed or promoted by the marketers. Once there is a product, sales focuses on penetrating it to the customers to whom it is targetted.

Sales is product oriented while marketing is consumer oriented.
