About this session:

Marketing has always been the subject of discussion in the C-Suite.  Is it an expense or is it an investment?  For those marketers that can connect sales directly to their marketing, it is an investment.  For all others it is an expense that needs to be managed.  It’s cut when times are slow and increased when there is a whim to do something to juice sales.

That’s no way to run the most important activity to drive the top line.  Marketers must connect their investments to sales and the C-Suite must demand that they do.  If they do, they can expect increases of 2% to 10% in profit!

This webinar will introduce key issues for the C-Suite to drive measurable, accountable and improvable marketing ROI and effectiveness for just about any organization:

 

  •  Top methods to calculate marketing ROI & effectiveness
  •  Getting budget dollars approved for marketing measurement & analysis
  •   What is the ROI of Marketing ROI?
