- Synopsis
- Most companies are able to forge a marketing strategy, but have difficulty implementing it. Marketing practice has two components: structural and human. There are four levels in the structural hierarchy--functions, programs, systems, and policy directives--and each has its pitfalls. Of 32 companies sampled, those best at marketing practice have a strong sense of identity and direction, appeal to customers (including distributors) in unusual ways, have marketing managers who are willing to substitute skills for the formal structure, and see the executives as more important than the execution structure.
