If you cannot understand the needs of customers/people you will never be a Good Manager, Leader or Developer. This understanding of the customer/people is core to our company. This is also needed for the next areas like Digital Marketing, Operations & Customer Service. So its imperative that you work in this area.
In Marketing, You will be talking to customers [people] about our company in locations assigned to you and you will be asking customers to take specific steps on our website explaining them the benefits. This is Not Direct Sales.
