I like to do marketing but my experience is in sales, Whether it is possible to do Marketing for future?
Marketing and sales are both activities aimed at increasing revenue.
Sales are focused on converting prospects to actual paying customers. Sales involves directly interacting with the prospects to persuade them to purchase the product.
Marketing include consumer research (to identify the needs of the customers), product development (designing innovative products to meet existing or latent needs), advertising the products to raise awareness and build the brand. The typical goal of marketing is to generate interest in the product and create leads or prospects.
Marketing is:
Marketing is one to many.
Marketing tells the stories (company, product, etc.) to many people.
Marketing looks after the brand’s reputation
Marketing needs to keep the stories circulating and resonating with the target markets using the company’s plumb line (the business of the business) as its central reference.
Marketing analyses the big data. Marketing brings you the average result not the specifics.
Marketing studies what experience customers expect when they buy or try a product, service or solution.
Marketing should not promote special prices and discounts, instead replace these with special offers, focusing on delivering greater value
Sales is:
Sales is about one to one.
Sales is where our business becomes real for the client. It is where the stories and brand come to life.
Sales develops relationships. It’s relationship-driven.
Sales looks after individuals.
Sales deals with the ambiguities and the details of each person. It cannot be averaged.
Sales analyses the behavior of the prospects and customers whom they deal with on an individual basis.
Sales moves away from discussing price and discount, instead replacing these with discussions about total cost of ownership which includes price but extends to include deliveries, warranties, support, training and the other contributing things that are delivered as part of the purchase.
marketing is what your describe and selling is what you exchange with money
marketing is a step before sales as marketing team studies the people needs before the adverising campaign .
after the advertising campaign it is the role of sales to go to the customer to sell the products
