Financial Services

Building a Marketing Machine

A Fortune 500 company was spinning off one of their key product units under a new brand. The company needed to know if their current marketing  tactics were working, and how they could improve their strategic and tactical marketing.  The CMO wanted to  prove that marketing had a material impact on sales.
