marketing is not only to sale a product r services to the
consumer but its more about knowing your right
customer,understand their buying behavior,and sale your
product at the right place at the right time.

markiting means which of the product done by the company 
that should sell to the consumer

marketing is the process of making aware the product
(or)service , which is satisfied the customer need at the
same time earning good returns to the organization.

Marketing is nuthing but the buyying and selling process of 
prodcts done by company to enduser(consumer)

Many people mistakenly think that selling and marketing are
the same - they aren't. You might already know that the
marketing process is broad and includes all of the following:

   1. Discovering what product, service or idea customers want.
   2. Producing a product with the appropriate features and
quality.
   3. Pricing the product correctly.
   4. Promoting the product; spreading the word about why
customers should buy it.
   5. Selling and delivering the product into the hands of
the customer.

Selling is one activity of the entire marketing process.

Selling is the act of persuading or influencing a customer
to buy (actually exchange something of value for) a product
or service.

Marketing activities support sales efforts. Actually, they
are usually the most significant force in stimulating sales.
Oftentimes, marketing activities (like the production of
marketing materials and catchy packaging) must occur before
a sale can be made; they sometimes follow the sale as well,
to pave the way for future sales and referrals. 

Do you see the
difference?????????????????????????????????The selling
concept, instead of focusing on meeting consumer demand,
tries to make consumer demand match the products it has
produced. Whereas marketing encompasses many research and
promotional activities to discover what products are wanted
and to make potential customers aware of them.

Marketing is a process of making aware the product or
services which satisfied the customer need & the same time
earning gd returns to the organization. Sales is a part of
marketing…it is a tool of marketing like Marketing Mix,
Promotional mix, Market segmentation etc

Market is concept oriented & sales is product oriented.

MaRKETING IS AN OVERALL DESECION OF ORGANISATION BUT SALES
IS ONLY SELF HARDWORK.

I gathered some experience in Insurance sector... but now i
am searching or wanting some extra experience rather than in
service sector like Insurance. Thats the reason i choose to
changing my career in FMCG... i need some experience in
product sector.

first of all i made some plans and  did work on it to the 
vast of my ability to fulfill my plan, in this way i 
achived my target.

To achieve a target cofidence is most important and also 
having fair knowledge of the target, which i have to 
achieve.....than my potential help me to achieve my 
destination.

achieving targets requires that you break down targets 
strategically and if you are working in a group, make sure 
every one under you knows what targets you have to achieve, 
so that there is no chaos. start with defining your targets 
and draw a map of how you are gona achieve them and follow 
accordingly

the major problem here will be deciding upon the target market.ones the target market is identified then we have to target this audience and create brand awareness.this can be done by using marketing mix
product- placing yr product in par with competitors,adding differentiation 
Price- either go for cost leadership approach else a price that keeps u in market
place- deciding upon the distribution channels etc
promotion- major tool for brand awareness use all 6 tools of communication if u can afford.position yr product

I will create promotions such as discounts, buy one take 1
or even free taste/use.  I will also tie up with the
organizations who conducts seminars and training to the
target people

i will explain about the benefits and special features of 
the product to the customer...i will compare the 
advantages, featurews ,uses of the product to other company 
products....and i will explian offers and some uses of that 
product and warranties....

it,s a the marketer wh will sell the product with his usp

We begin by creating awareness about the product.  This
involves what the benefits of the product are.  It is also
important to indicate what the disadvantages of using the
product are.  Additionally, a strong market promotion which
will involve advertising through sales flyers, TV and radio
adverts and giving out free samples of the product to
prospective buyers; especially if the product is a
consumable.  If the product is not a consumable, it should
be possible to permit free trials by prospective buyers as well.
