Situation Analysis - Hypothesis
Universally, today’s business climate for brand and financial management suffers low visibility; decisions made today can appear as illusions tomorrow. How do managers assess brand value in uncertain markets?
New metrics come and go as passing waves. Decision makers require easy-to-use, accurate and reliable tools, and systems more than ever. Confidence is achieved through market-proven strategic validation.
