Iffy ROI - More Popular Than You Think

Wednesday, December 1, 2010 - 4:24pm

I'm reading "More Guerrilla Marketing Research" by Robert Kaden, Gerald Linda and Jay Conrad Levinson.

Man, I love it so far. Skipping over the basic overviews, some sections caused me to sharpen my #2 Ticonderoga and do some serious underlying. Like this, from page 46:

It's hard to spend money on research when there is no clear guarantee of a profitable payback. Interesting isn't it though, that spending money to support short-term promotions, circulating additional catalogs or flyers, running a bunch of banner ads, adding to the sales force or tossing a new product or service into the market seems so easy to justify - even when faced with just as iffy a payback.

Love it.
