Entry

The basic qualification required for entry into the marketing and sales department of any organization is an MBA with a specialization in marketing and sales management. A BA with economics or B.Com. can also be a starting point for a career in sales and marketing. However it is advisable to also take up a short-term part-time course in marketing. Sales is often a good entry point into a future position in marketing; while marketing jobs can lead to a career in general management. Production people also, after a few years experience, sometimes switch to the marketing and sales department.
