In this Foresight Lecture, Nathalie Dahl is talking about How To Ensure Your Marketing Horse Wins The Race And Brings Home Results.
When a famous marketer was once asked how he can manage to make over 90 % of his campaigns super successful he replied dryly: “It’s quite simple really: I only bet on the fastest horse.” Marketing is a strange animal. Just like an untamed horse, it can treat you very nice, get you great results and business opportunities – or on the other hand throw you off track completely, getting absolutely no results or even worse: bad feedback from the market – often without giving you any clues as to why. So how can you ensure your marketing horse wins the race and brings home results?.
