Marketing Vs. Selling
33


Marketing – Focuses on the buyer. What needs do
you have and how can I help you?
Selling – Focuses on the seller. I have a product you
need to buy.

My Experience
34





Most companies are reactionary.
They do not manage marketing well.
They do not take action until sales decline and
cause significant pain.
They prefer to do business as usual.
They fail when they do not understand the changing
market, customer expectations, and the need to
provide competitive value.
