The answer of your questions was written by aussie at the sales and marketing forum , hope  it will help you to  understand what the differences between those 2 words .
A marketer is a creative person, a law unto himself, a person with few boundaries, a person who lives inside the head of your customer, a person who dreams and creates at any/all hours of day and night, a person who can send normal disciplined people crazy. For a marketer, the thrill of the chase is creating original thinking / products - original ideas that work, ideas that nobody else thought about. Top marketers are some of the world's highest paid professional people.
A salesperson, unlike a marketer, is a well disciplined person who works within a tight set of conventional rules to get the sales orders. A salesperson is motivated by the thrill of closing a deal and the attendant cash bonus. You drive a good sales person crazy when you don't give him/her sound marketing back up.
 
Good sales people do not make good marketers and vice versa ... Selling and Marketing are very separate disciplines involving very different ways of thinking.
 
While actual selling is a tough game, I rank it third in terms of toughness behind Marketing (by far the most difficult of any business activity) and then Administration. Get the marketing right and sales near automatically follow.

I have no ideal .But i want to be a marketer but  not a seller .

A seller : to sell his products to people .

a marketer :he will wait people  come and  buy his products .

Sales  should based on the marketing. Just take the USB drives, the price in the india market  and the quality  is just so so. If I want to sell USB  to this india, I am so scared about  teh price, cause we can't sell the USB drives with the quality according to the marketing in this country.

     I think a marketer should have sales orientation,  that means designate some certain group as sales buyers or some countries, such as US, European countries.
