Trang 13Should Marcom Objectives Be Stated
in Terms of Sales?
The Heretical
View (Antithesis)
• Marcom objectives should always be stated in terms of sales or
market share gains and that failure to do so is a cop-out
• Marcom’s purpose is to generate sales.
• A host of factors (e.g., advertising, sales promotions, and other
elements of the marcom program) can affect sales.
• Marcom’s effect on sales is typically delayed, or lagged.
Accountability
Perspective
• Companies and their chief executives and financial officers are
demanding greater accountability from marcom programs
