Marketing is doing actual ground work before laying rail tracks, then laying tracks, scheduling and running rail service, arranging to sell tickets, making decisions about pricing, creating awareness and actually delivering travel service. While selling is issue of tickets, accepting bookings for cargo and passengers, ensuring that customers get what they pay for. |

No. Marketing is creating awareness of the product in the market. |

In a way-- marketing means presenting a product to the targeted group and enticing them into buying the product by advertising it/presenting it as the product that is right for them.
Example: a pharmaceutical company will market or present a new drug to physicians in hopes the doctor(s) will buy and prescribe the product to their patients. |

Marketing and Selling are NOT THE SAME THING.
Marketing involves:
Advertising -i.e. frequency and reach - getting the word out there, and getting your message heard.
Marketing involves a LOT of research - determining your target market, where to reach your target market, determining if your product FITS your target market, the demographics of your target market, etc.
SELLING involves TAKING the information that MARKETING has gathered for you and going out and reaching that target market. Marketing brings in the leads and qualifies them - sales goes out and touches those leads and tried to finish the sale. |

NO NO NO NO NO!!!!
Marketing and selling are two completely different animals. Marketers deal with the public awareness of your product (ie advertising, press releases, web ads, websites, campaigns, public image). Sales handles the "converts" from marketing. Converts are people who go from seeing your product to taking an action to buying it. It is then up to the sales department to make the converts into customers/clients. |

No. Marketing looks at the staretgic and tactical levels. While selling focuses on executional and operational level. |

Depends who you ask. Most people consider marketing to just be advertising or selling. However, the business description of marketing involves everything from product conception to delivery (learned that in MBA classes). True marketing involves figuring out what the customer wants first... then selling and finally delivering it.
From dictionary.com:
1. the act of buying or selling in a market.
2. the total of activities involved in the transfer of goods from the producer or seller to the consumer or buyer, including advertising, shipping, storing, and selling. |

Marketing is an Art and it involve a process called selling. In simple way it can be explained as, selling means first you have a product to sell and you search around people to BUY, where as in the case marketing, you have assessed the need and demand of people and try to make a product best fits to the need of people and sell. |

Marketing Aids Selling
all portions like promotions, ads, demos, road shows, live feeds, on line marketing, mass mailers, mass sms'g all aid the product/services
versus
Sales is the actual cash transaction against product/services rendered.
Hope you have got the difference... |

Marketing means advertising for business. How you market your business depends on what type of business you have. As an attorney, I market for clients. If I sold items, it would be marketing for sales, so marketing is not the same as selling, per se. |

Yes -
You need support ? Don't you own or have access to a TV ?
TV is non stop marketing / commercials / ads and selling !
AND marketing professional services IS selling also because people pay $$$$ for legal, dental, medical services.
Whether the product is tangible or a service is irrelevant . . . it is marketed to get $$$ AND that is selling ! |
