When sales and marketing play on the same team, an organization is able to acquire new customers far more efficiently. But the two are so often at odds with each other. Marketing are pressured to generate 'leads' right now, often forcing their hand to pass onto sales low-intent leads that have little interest in buying. Sales are just looking for 'hot deals' to meet their quotas, and become disgruntled with marketing after their leads feel like a waste of time.
