Mark Ramsey points to a survey of marketing professionals that shows growing pressure on accountability:

“86% of marketers say pressure has increased on them to account for results; no one said that the pressure has decreased. Moreover, 68% of organizations are measuring the quantifiable contribution of marketing to the bottom line.

Message to radio: You’re no longer in the advertising business. You’re in the results business.
So which are you selling, advertising or results?”

I feel like I should have something to say about this… but I don’t know what it would be.
