Abstract

The relationship between sales and marketing has generated considerable academic interest in recent years, with studies focusing on how the interface can be improved. However, prior research has neglected an important aspect of this interface: the relationship between market orientation and collaboration between sales and marketing. This study considers this relationship and was carried out through a survey of managing directors/chief executives. The results indicate that collaboration between sales and marketing has a positive relationship with market orientation and that collaboration between sales and marketing as well as market orientation have a combined positive effect on business performance.
