Marketing Metrics

Reading the first few pages of Dr Mani Shreshtha and Dr Anurag Dugar’s book, I got hooked. The way they have started each chapter with a case study and then tried to simplify the nuances of the case through the eyes of a marketer is simply awesome. The flow of the book is interactive, which makes it a page turner. Best wishes to both of them, and I hope that they will continue to write more books which help students and practitioners alike. -- Lakshman Nagar * Business Director, More Retail Limited, Kolkata *

Marketing is the study of why people do what they do, with the final goal of getting them to do what we want them to do. This book is the right step in that direction. Starting with topics like ‘How do I know my customers are satisfied?’ to pricing strategy and planning for the best media for best results, this book is a must-read for students and practitioners of marketing.
This book is the Holy Grail of marketing—to tell you how to price your product, how to select the right media working for you and how to measure the sales performance of your team. It is a must-read for every marketing enthusiast. -- Arvind * General Manager—QA, V-Mart Retail Limited, Gurugram *
It is said that all big ideas are always very simple. Likewise, this thought of coming with a handbook of most common, most frequently needed and most commonly used calculations by marketers of today and aspiring marketers of tomorrow is a brilliant idea. I am very confident that it is going to be a ‘must-have’ in the armamentarium of every marketer. Kudos to the authors of this simple but brilliant idea. -- Ashok Saroha * Vice-President—Exports, Akums Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Delhi *
Marketing has so much to do with numbers, but it is also a creative domain. If you know the models and right tools to play around with numbers, you can reach the pinnacle of marketing in any organization. This book explains the importance of knowing your tools and methods to play around with numbers to come to right marketing models for your business. Being a business/start-up owner myself, where money and resources are hard to come by, we have to be judicious in our planning, be it launching a product/service or deciding which region to launch and how many resources we need to put to pitch our product to the end customer. This book explains all of these well.
Kudos to the authors who have beautifully structured the entire cycle of marketing and beautifully clubbed it with various number models. It is a must-read for all, especially for start-ups which are looking to be the next unicorn. -- Prateek Rathi * Founder, Norfest, Hyderabad *
