Description
According to the American Society of Training and Development (ASTD), the definition of sales is “The holistic business system required to effectively develop, enable, and execute a mutually beneficial interpersonal exchange of goods and/or services for equitable value.” In Principles of Marketing, Phillip Kotler defines marketing as “a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating and exchanging products and value with others.”
Marketing then, in working hand in hand with sales, becomes an ongoing process of planning and executing the strategy and tactics for products and services to create a dialogue or communication.
In this course, sales and marketing are discussed in relation to the buying and selling of real estate.
