Faqs
Why study the topic of sales?
Businesses have several goals, such as providing people and families with consumer and luxury goods and services, bringing new technology to market, improving the sustainability of the globe, etc. They all need to sell in order to complete their mission successfully. Because of this, studying sales offers the widest number of employment options in the management field.

Is sales different from marketing?
In the past, businesses often divided sales and marketing into two distinct divisions. This distinction is not as relevant anymore due to the accelerating changes in the modern business world.

You are given a strong foundation of knowledge and skills in both marketing and sales as part of the Sales MSc programme, with a focus on the latter.
