I presume you have asked Difference and not define as you have used "between". 

My understanding of sales eversince, i began my career with Sales (similiar to the role of a soldier / specialist) who has to produce results (conversion / kill) with his acquired skills. The Sales person works on a master plan deviced by a an individual ( Marketing) who has considered /is good at, various aspects of the business like Finance, Economics, Analistics / Statistics, Consumer behaviour and above all Business Management - Advertising, HR etc.  

A sales person has to plan to apply his Selling skills to execute the Marketing Plan and convert the Plan into numbers. He is the bread winner and his winning is key to the sucess of the Marketing Plan.

The objective of Sales and Marketing is the same: to let customers to know you exist and let them know what your company provides, but the tactics are very different.

Sales is mostly an individual act for example a sales employee will contact the customer, get to know him/her personally, and gain trust of the customer. By being personal the sales employee will try to convince the customer that if you trust me, you should leave the rest to me. In sales the customer knows more about an individual rather than a company.

Marketing is more of a broad act for example a marketing employee will handle promotions through social media outlets, he/she will almost never interact with the customer. In marketing the customer does not have a personal relationship with an employee of the company and they will not trust the promoted company unless and until they try the product or service.

This is just short comparison of what is the difference between sales and marketing.

Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Yaser

I can tell you a long story which can tell you the difference between Marketing and Sales but rather very simple answer to this question is that Marketing deals with the creation of demand for a certain product or service while sales deals with the physical transfer of title of a good or service from the seller to the buyer.

You do advertising, sales promotion, personal selling and lot more things to pursuade the customer to convince him/her to buy a particular brand that is all Marketing. But when customer physical buy that product against payment and tranfer of title takes place from seller to buyer physically it is Sales.

Marketing vs. Sales. Marketing and sales are both aimed at increasing revenue. They are so closely intertwined that people often don't realize the difference between the two. Indeed, in small organizations, the same people typically perform both sales and marketing tasks.
