A marketing effectiveness
audit provides a comprehensive, systematic and
independent examination of the company's marketing
environment - across all major marketing activities
of the business. It is often the first-step
in improving a company's market performance.
Key issues addressed:
 |
Have marketing
objectives, strategies and plans been set,
and do they reflect marketplace requirements? |
 |
What elements
of the marketing mix provide the greatest
leverage opportunities? |
 |
Can marketing
resources be realigned to improve efficiency
and effectiveness? |
 |
Are there
opportunities to improve marketing and sales
planning, through redesigned systems, processes
or organizational structure? |
Approach and anticipated
results:
Through internal interviews
and primary and secondary research, a company's
or brand's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities,
and threats are uncovered. A corrective action
plan is then developed, to identify a limited
set of marketing levers, with a focus on improving
marketing efficiency and effectiveness.
