It is the most complex time in the history of advertising, yet the C-suite questions are simple: (1) "Do my marketing $ drive growth and sales?" and (2) "Where do I spend my next marketing $?" MASB's work, focused on the accurate and comparable measurement of marketing efforts, is advancing the industry to respond to these C-suite needs and to drive much needed growth. -Gayle Fuguitt, President & CEO, The Advertising Research Foundation, USA

This book not only lays the groundwork for new working relations between finance and marketing, it also documents the process of initiating fundamental change in the business community through collaboration across industry lines. Through MASB's efforts, we will soon have the measurement standards necessary for continuous improvement in financial performance. -Rajeev Batra, Ross School of Business, University of Michigan, USA
