This week we are going to chat about marketing analytics and business and consumer markets. Your tasks: A study conducted by Adobe found that 77% of marketers surveyed believe that data on consumer purchase histories can improve marketing performance, yet only 21% actually use it. Similarly, 88% believe that behavioral data can have a similar impact, but only 20 % use it. These statistics highly a contradiction between the perception of marketing analytics' value and the actual frequency of execution of marketing analytics. Why do you think this is? If you were in charge of implementing marketing analytics in an organization, what hurdles would you expect to encounter and from whom, and how would you overcome them? The practice of buying business products based of sealed competitive bids is popular among all types of business buyers. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this practice to buyers? Should companies always give the business to the lowest bidder? Why or why not?
