Answer / siddhartha rai
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.

There will be a loss in weight of about 20% during the processing the green coffee beans into coffee powder, which will then be fit for human consumption. Now, after processing the green coffee beans at Bangalore, the person wants to sell simultaneously a part of the Roasted Coffee Powder to four persons; one of them is in Chandigarh (a registered Dealer in Punjab) and the other is in Mumbai (possibly he is a an individual and not a registered dealer), third one is a registered dealer in Bangalore and the last one is an individual consumer just like you and me, and is not a registered dealer and stays in Mysore. The person wishes to bring the rest of the packed Roasted Coffee Powder back to Koraput, Odisha. The planter is a registered dealer under VAT in Odisha and has produced (manufactured) the coffee beans in his own gardens, and has applied for a CST Number but is yet to obtain the Number. We want to know: As to whether he can send the coffee beans to Bangalore for roasting without obtaining a CST Number beforehand. Or as to whether it is mandatory for him to get the CST registration first, before sending the Coffee beans to outside the state; As to how the person can generate the Way Bills from here and to send these to the transport carriers, for his sales to Chandigarh, Mumbai, Bangalore and Mysore. Tell me as to how he can do the necessary paper works and as to how he can pay the tax collected thus, As to how he can bring the rest of the roasted coffee powder back to Koraput that he can sell afterwards in the state and outside; He shall be sending samples of the Roasted coffee to Philippines and elsewhere, from Bangalore itself. May be in a subsequent times he might export, for which he has to send the roasted coffee powder to Mumbai; If the person wants to send the parchment coffee to Kushal Nagar in Karnataka to do the Curing Pre-Roasting) there, as to how he can send the processed coffee to the Roster at Bangalore.
