Marketing and sales are interdependent. The company needs revenue to stay in business. It gets revenue through sales. A talented salesperson is his or her own marketer, identifying buying trends and tailoring sales pitches to the individual customer. This can be time-consuming, and it takes the salesperson away from the important job of making and closing sales. So the company may delegate the marketing function to a separate but obviously related department. In this case, sales may depend on marketing, but marketing depends just as much, if not more, on sales to a) make the money that funds the marketing department b) inform the marketing department what's going on in the market Marketing departments assist sales departments. Sales can get along without formal marketing departments, but not vice versa.
I think Sales depends on Marketing. If your marketing strategy is good it will increase your sale.
They both complement each other,as a marketer you need information and feedback from sales staff to design an effective marketing plan to complement and enhance sales effectiveness. Once the proper marketing statrategy is set sales will be better supported and enhanced.

There is a very close relation among marketing and sales. Marketing is responsible for designing the plans to promote and enhance brand value and profitability and prepare new launch programs and all these strategies are implanted in market through sales professionals.

Yes and no. Sales is part of the marketing department. Marketing ultimately involves the selling of a product or service. It is up to the marketing department to identify consumer trends and needs. Marketing helps to identify the market for a product or service. Marketing can also be the catalyst for new products through market research and development. Marketing often works with production to come up with products to meet consumer needs. Sometimes sales and marketing perform the same function, depending on the size of the organization.

Sales is directly proportional to the success of your marketing initiative. Better your marketing so is your sale and vice versa. But selling is not a direct KRA of the marketing depertment.
It is the other way around sales depends on marketing. If the marketers did their job will. Meaning that the marketing strategy is well developed by targeting the right segment,7 ps,4 Cs, choosing the right advertising, if there is after sales service needed it should be found...etc. At this point, they will help the sales team to achieve better sales % and will help in increasing the company's profit.
The opposite is true , the marketing define guidelines for sales
They always work together, but it depends on the type of product or service. You can look at sales as a measuring tool to analyze the success of the marketing strategy. Marketing generates the interest, sales brings in the money.
