If you are considering all the7 P's of Marketing: Yes
If you are considering only the4 core P's of Marketing: No
YES, BUT SALES TARGETS AND SALES MANAGEMENT IS PURELY SALES PEOPLE AREA ,, IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO CONSULT THESE PROFESSIONALS WHILE THINKING FOR THEM. GOOD LUCK
Let me put it simple:
Marketing functions main task is to strategise and formulate processes that aim at the7 Ps of Marketing (People, Place, Price, Promotion, Packaging, positioning, and processes) for the product or service the company is offering and from the data/surveys collected will formulate strategies on how to make this product viable for positive revenue generation to the company.
Sales: main function/task is to Make customer demand match with the product offering of the company to increase positive revenue for the company.
Both Marketing and Sales have one thing in common that is the revenue generation for the company, however they vary in the core functioning.
