This module is aimed to deepen the discussion regarding marketing and strategy concepts. And these concepts play a critical role in the sales planning and management functions. A company's managers can perform this role smoothly; another company's managers may have limitations in this process. In the latter case, marketing and sales functions will be misaligned, which reduces the company's value creation potential through the sales. Therefore, this module initiates Course 4 with focus on the marketing foundations that relate to sales. The module's primary learning outcomes are - Improved understanding of the foundations of marketing and how they interact with sales; identify the interactions between marketing related variables and the sales functions; and improved knowledge and skills to support marketing planning through the sales team contributions in product development, pricing, place, and promotions.
