What have we learned about brand campaigns?Brand investments remove pressures on transactional levers, allowing us to hold on pricing and amplify segment marketing
Brand investments deliver in-period top & bottom-line growth, paying for themselves in as little as 5 months
Brand investments lift “brand pull”, establishing a stronger base for continued top & bottom-line growth over the next 18-24 months

What else can we measure?We can measure the response curves of each business driver over time, identifying where increased investments will lead to accelerating returns
We’ve quantified the cross-business unit impact of investments by one P&L, allowing for complete ROI calculations
We’ve estimated the complete ROI of pricing decisions, both short and long-term
We’ve determined a value of our investment in green initiatives, that correlates well with third-party research
We’ve shown that product quality improvements do contribute to revenue that’s measureable11
