AThat's great that your little girl is already thinking about the future! A sales marketing consultant can earn a lot of money. There aren't a lot of schools that offer a sales marketing consultant major, per se, but you can find some great places on the web to get started (see my resource below). Anything having to do with sales will help her on her way also. I hope that if she really is interested in becoming a consultant that you help her toward that goal, it will be worth it in the end!

AI think it was A. Lincoln; you can fool all the people some of the timesome of the people all the timebut ever all the people all the time.Baskin Robbins;quality is first.YOU can't give away a piece of junk except for its materialvalue.[sales is a division of marketing--not something different]

ASales are people that sale stuff, like car salesmanMarketing - market a product, not necessary outcome into a sale. More of promoting the products espeically new ones.Business Development - nowadays corporations go for this instead of the above. The tasks are wider. One need to understand the market, know their clients needs and wants, and research to develop the product that the market needs. Promote and market them. Make a sale.This is what i understood.

AI work in commercial real estate ...hope my ideas are applicable to you. Sales people love when you ask their opinion or ask for their ideas. How about a round table discussion for ideas to bring in new clients/prospects or ask someone that is still producing good numbers to share some insight as to what they are doing. Theywill most likely do it b/c they are in the spotlight (all sales people love that) and at the same time it's helping you out b/c some of your struggling sales team might get an idea to bring in some new business. Another idea, if they aren't busy have a meeting about the "basics". If they aren't out winning new business, they need to be fostering relationships that will bring in repeat business. Remind them that the client is the only reason they are there, ask everyone to write 2 hand written notes in the meeting. Pass out blank cards and tell them, one thanking someone for a meeting they've gone to within the past week, and another asking someone they've met within the past week to meet. It doesn't have to be a meeting to talk sales, but maybe just to establish a relationship that could bring a sale in the future. It's all about relationships, drill that into them now, while they can focus on it. Another idea: talk to your team about putting a new spin on your product/service. Whatever it is you provide, must benefit your client, you must figure out how to benefit the client enough that it out weighs the cost of whatever your service/product is. Sounds like another good round table discussion. This is the kind of stuff I love, I hope it was helpful/applicable to your team.

AIdeally, you'll need to go to college and take the appropriate classes there. In high school, you need to focus on your college prep classes. But if there are some business-related classes you can take, I'm sure it would only help. Marketing requires some creativity, so don't forget to take an art class or two. Concentrate on your English and writing classes, and you'll do great.Good luck!

AI love my job. I do both sales and marketing.I see myself as a problem solver. I solve the problem of anonymity. I sell printing and promotional items. When a company hires me, I provide them with a service designed to pull them out of their slump, save their house from the bank and let them breathe a sigh of relief. They will sleep better at night because of my work.I believe in my service and products. I'm a benefit to everyone who shows me just a drop of trust. I feel good knowing that I'm helping others. I feel great when they pay me for it. =)You need to believe on your product or service 100% or you will fail miserably. If you believe in your product, you'll be surprised when it doesn't sell or it's rejected. Just realize, they are rejecting your product, not you. Get used to "no". You might get 1000 no's just to get one yes. Ohhh and that yes feels so good.

AThe best way to get your foot into the door would be to find various marketing seminars, conferences, local meet up groups of similar professions within the same field of interest.Once you locate and join these groups participate in them by going to them and networking with others there. Only professionals who are passionate about the industry and where it's going show up to these kinds of events which in turn makes it look good on your resume when you join to put down.Before going to these meetings be sure to make contact cards which have your contact information on them such as a profession email, name and contact numbers.Attending these seminars or groups you will note that there are people from all different industries within the same marketing/sales space as you which will provide you with an additional insight as to what industry you may find interesting.Be sure to communicate and discuss about opportunities with the members there when networking time is provided. Hope this helps.
