What is the Right Marketing Strategy?

There are several common approaches to choosing the best marketing strategy, including Prior Experience and Research Data. 

Employing research data requires expertise in collecting, analyzing, and interpreting the right type of data. Another question is, where do we get the data. In some instances, the data may be openly available or easy to access. Other times, though all the data we have might be great, it might not be sufficient that's where marketing research comes in. Sometimes, we have to go out and get the data ourselves, analyze it, then interpret it to come up with new information. That's what marketing research is all about. 


What are Decision Support Systems?

Decision support systems are computer programs or platforms that can help us make sense of a great deal of data and information. They can help guide our decision making as we develop our marketing strategy.
