Take
Advantage of
This Recession
Historically, recessions are relatively short and they're
usually followed by long periods of prosperity
“Most firms in our analysis cut their
[marketing] budget in a recession.”
“Companies that have been looking at marketing as an investment, and not an expense are the ones that are going to
come out of this [recession] really, really well.”
This is not the time to cut sales and marketing!
It is well documented that companies that increase sales
and marketing during a recession, when competitors are cutting back, can improve market share and return on
investment at lower cost than during good economic times.
John Quelch is Senior Associate Dean of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.
“ I have yet to see any study that proves
timidity is the route to
success.”
Studies consistently have proven that
companies that have the intelligence and
guts to maintain their overall
marketing and advertising efforts in
times of business downturns will get the edge on their timid competitors”
. J. Welsey Rosberg Senior VP, Meldrum & Fewsmith’s
McGraw-Hill Research analyzed 600 businesses.
Those specific companies that maintained or increased their sales, marketing and advertising expenditures
during a recession averaged significantly higher sales growth, both during the recession and for the following three years, than those that eliminated or decreased
advertising.
Sales from companies that remained aggressive during recession enjoyed a
256% increase in overall revenue- during the first three years of the
recovery
