I have been working with a M business unit of a large information technology firm. I have applied the Marketing Engineering sales resource allocation model with their sales management team with much success.We had two important questions that the model helped answer. How big is the market from the sales perspective? How much is the sales group under resourced? The model revealed that the market is approximately 0 million and that to achieve that result an increase in sales effort of 50% is needed. By the way the CEO was tickled to see that profits increased threefold under this scenario.Principal, Market Leaders Group, LLC

We used the Marketing Engineering perceptual maps for one of our competitive local exchange carrier businesses in the telecommunications end. And, when we did the perceptual map, we realized where our “white space” was, and we re-did our whole branding campaign to address that white space. And, we did some focus groups to test out the new campaign and they tested very well compared to the old one. And, after the focus groups, we went out and did the campaign.
We just got the results back and our brand awareness was raised by 46%. And, when we re-did the perceptual maps after our brand awareness study, we saw that the exact space that we wanted to enter into is where we went. So, we are thrilled and we wouldn’t have known this if we didn’t have the Marketing Engineering perceptual mapping system, the joint space map.Director of Marketing Unregulated Business, Exelon
