A high percentage of marketing and business graduates identify the sales field as a career of choice upon graduation.

Specifically, you can 'market' yourself to organizations as having some degree of proficiency in relationship selling, buyer behavior, value creation and delivery, prospecting, sales call planning, presenting the core sales message, communications skills, negotiating win/win solutions, customer relationship management, management of high-impact sales teams, and understanding of sales force performance. These skill sets are among the most widely sought of any among successful professional marketers.
