Marketers are under increasing pressure to either cut costs or quantify the value of their marketing activities.
Produced by BrandConnect, a commercial division of The Economist

Marketers who believe they can succeed in this future by rejiggering channel spend or investing in a “silver bullet” marketing technology stack are flirting with extinction.
To ensure their continued relevancy, CMOs must undertake a dramatic transformation in both their own and their organizations’ capacity for financial and analytical rigor. In particular, they must rethink the way they approach marketing planning and spend management.
A rigorous approach to marketing planning and spend management will allow marketers to deliver—in a disciplined, right-sized way—on customer expectations.
