"John has successfully demonstrated marketing has very finite and tangible attributes that are quantifiable and will benefit any organization focused on both value and volume. If we are honest, most global organizations fall short in quantifying the value of marketing. Measuring Marketing clearly defines what is important to measure and why. Both will favorably influence a company's decisions in investing in marketing that will eventually flow to its investors with the realization that the use of capital is being maximized. John has masterfully proven marketing has many more quantifiable components than most recognize. It is a magnificent tool for any organization's marketing department to apply concurrently in discussions with their Finance departments."
