Are there any difference between sales and marketing department of a company?

[Peppul]

Yes there is a huge difference between sales and marketing department. In a company the marketing department job is to make people to be aware of what the company is offering to buyers or tell buyers about the product the company is producing and to convince them to buy. Now for sales department they don't have to do much all they have to do is attend to buyers by sellinv the product the marketing department have convince them to buy when they come to the company

Use this analogy of a musical theater to understand better. Sales people are the performers in a Broadway theater whereas marketing folks are the set of designers, producers and choreographers. On the surface, the two may present a " selling vs marketing"schema. Marketing puts the show together without a nod of the head or clap of the hand. Sales then take the reins and earn the applause.

If a sales department gets to b in charge of a marketing job then that will be loads of work. Marketing encompasses many things.

To me I think there is different between sales department and marketing department depending on the size and nature of the the business the organisation carried out.

Depends on the size of the organization. Both teams are expected to work hand in hand. Some companies merge the two department together. They work hand in hand to ensure successful sales of the company's products.

Here according to your explanation one boost sales while the other improves sales of the company. To me this two are correlated and works hand in hand.
Sales department and marketing department should be merged as one because when there is no marketing there won't be any sales.
