Sales is the brand directly approaching the client. Marketing is indirectly letting the client approach the brand.

i will tell you the best way to describe it not to define it

"Sales and marketing are twins, both must communicate not fabricate or convince"

I like the part from the movie street wolf.. when leonardo de caprio gave his associates a pen and told them to sell the pen to me... everyone thought of how they make the pen appealing except brad who said it was never about the pen it is about what he wants

which leonardo replied................ "I dont have a pen"

NOT ONE LINE BUT TRY TO UNDERSTAND WELL, AND MAKE IT ONE LINE FOR YOU.

Marketing encompasses a broad spectrum of activities including, market research, product discovery, product production, pricing, promotion, distribution and selling, therefore, selling is just only one activity in the long process of marketing procedures .

Sales  is an act persuading or convincing a customer to buy a product, services or ideas.

 

  Without marketing sales concept will never happened, even in small scale industries or sales outlets, there should be a word of mouth marketing, in simple means, no sales without marketing, so marketing is always first and it is best for better sales too. Thanks.

marketing is something creating a need, targeting the customers, altering their mindsets and then convincing them, u really need that product and afterwards when the products reaches their hand that's called SALES. marketing always the starting point.
