Peter FiskAn Iconic Marketing Thought Leader and Business Thinker
Dear Marketing Professional
Turbulent times call for many change both strategic and tactical in a company's marketing efforts. The worst thing is to just enforce a large across-the-board cut in the marketing budget. The marketing head may try to defend keeping the existing budget, primarily as the best way to shore up sales, but he/she may not be able to convince the CEO and CFO. In fact, they will likely push cuts in the advertising budget, particularly the high expenditures tools.
From a strategic point of view, companies must remain focused on satisfying their target customers, paying particular attention to their core customers.
Companies cannot start to make cost cuts until they grasp what is happening to their customers, competitors, dealers and suppliers. What problems face their customers? What moves are those cus-tomers making? How can the company provide help to their custom-ers? What are the competitors doing? What opportunities are open-ing up in the meantime? How much risk does the company want to take? Each company must act in a way that best promises to preserve its customers, its brand strength, and its long-term objec-tives.
In order to find answers to all these questions, and other challenges facing your company in the extended slowdown, attend our upcom-ing open program MARKETING IN A DOWN ECONOMY with one of the greatest minds in marketing today - Peter Fisk.
