Inhibitors to Market Research

• Mistaken beliefs that inhibit the use of marketing research: Cost: research is too expensive.

Complexity: research techniques rely on overly complex sampling, surveying, and statistical analysis.

Strategic Decisions: only major strategic decisions need to be supported through marketing research.

Irrelevancy: research data will contain either information that merely supports what is already known or irrelevant information.

Social Media Marketing

• Social Media Marketing The use of social networks, online communities,

blogs, wikis, and other online collaborative media tools for marketing purposes.

• Effective Social Media Marketing Create value with an event, a video, a tweet, or a blog

entry, that attracts attention and becomes viral. Enable customers to promote a message themselves

with multiple online social media venues. Encourage user participation and dialogue that fully

engages customers with online conversations.

priority and time-allocation basis? Does the sales force contact decision makers? Are territories aligned according to sales potential and

salespeople’s abilities? Are sales calls coordinated with other selling efforts, such as

trade publication advertising, trade shows, and direct mail? Do salespeople ask the right questions on sales calls? Do sales

reports contain appropriate information? Does the sales force understand potential customers’ needs?

How does the growth or decline of a customer’s or a prospect’s business affect the company’s own sales?
