Sales & Business Development
Sales & Business Development are two key functions within an organization that are closely related but serve different purposes. Both aim to generate revenue and foster growth, but they focus on different aspects of acquiring and maintaining business.
Sales: Sales refers to the activities involved in directly selling products or services to customers. It focuses on converting leads or prospects into paying customers and maintaining relationships with them to drive repeat business.
Business Development: Business development is a broader, more strategic function focused on identifying new business opportunities, partnerships, and markets to fuel long-term growth. While sales focuses on closing deals, business development aims to create new avenues for revenue generation.
