Marketing Shouldn't Always Sell
Manage episode 413216991 series 3193610
There's been a recent push (most likely by the bean counters) to establish a direct ROI for marketing efforts. I can understand this thinking. Advertising and marketing are expensive. The adage of "half of all marketing spend is wasted, we just don't know which half" makes sense, if you're looking at waste in an immediate return sense. You spend $X on advertising and marketing this quarter and only get $Y in sales. As a numbers person, you'd want to invert that balance. But the problem is, that's not the only purpose of marketing and advertising.
