Under the contemporary business conditions of hyper-competition, incessant change and pressure for growth and profitability, better management of marketing budgets has become an imperative for companies. In addition, properly monitoring and measuring marketing and brand communication strategies and tactics has become a critical factor for success across the geographic and typological organisational spectrum. This book explores how appropriately applied management initiatives on marketing and brand communications, through defined and measured consumer-centred processes, can be more successful and provide significant marketing return on investment (ROI). Moreover, the notions, methods and approaches described here ultimately constitute the tools of developing, measuring and improving strategy design and implementation. In addition, they are linked to a number of wider business goals, such as increased customer basis, stronger customer relationships, cost control, increased consumer loyalty, and brand building. In this vein, the book proposes various means of generating greater returns from marketing and brand investments, maximising both their efficiency and effectiveness. This, in turn, allows for greater financial resources to be reinvested towards consumer and employee satisfaction, strengthening the stability and viability of the company.

Few marketers recognize the extraordinary range of metrics now available for evaluating their strategies and tactics. In Marketing Metrics, four leading researchers and consultants systematically introduce today's most powerful marketing metrics. The authors show how to use a "dashboard" of metrics to view market dynamics from various perspectives, maximize accuracy, and "triangulate" to optimal solutions. Their comprehensive coverage includes measurements of promotional strategy, advertising, and distribution; customer perceptions; market share; competitors' power; margins and profits; products and portfolios; customer profitability; sales forces and channels; pricing strategies; and more. You'll learn how and when to apply each metric, and understand tradeoffs and nuances that are critical to using them successfully. The authors also demonstrate how to use marketing metrics as leading indicators, identifying crucial new opportunities and challenges. For clarity and simplicity all calculations can be performed by hand, or with basic spreadsheet techniques. In coming years, few marketers will rise to senior executive levels without deep fluency in marketing metrics. This book is the fastest, easiest way to gain that fluency.

Longitudinal models play a very important role in marketing model building, and there are some occasions when market research is conducted every day of the year. These longitudinal models can be useful to marketing managers to make many informed and important decisions for optimal allocation of resources to marketing mix variables. In particular, we cover three major applications of these principles adhering to Advertising tracking monitors, Brand Equity monitors, and sales promotion monitors. We introduce the reader to the basic principles and theory of econometrics in model building for analyzing sales and market share variables about marketing spending. Different functional forms are discussed in the book. And the readers are encouraged to use these functional forms to model the three monitors mentioned above. This book is targeted towards second-year MBA students and marketing/brand managers in companies to derive insights about the markets and competitors. This is followed up with different tools for forecasting companies' sales and market share. This book is useful for managers in durables and fast-moving consumer goods industries. This book addresses the need for when and where to make insights about marketing mix variables through econometric models. The author has 32 years of industry experience and is an expert in marketing models. The author has a Ph.D. in marketing from Purdue University. The book elucidates these theories without using complicated mathematical equations in simple-to-understand verbal models of complicated equations.
