The Marketing Blindspot

One idea a month on the commercial side of marketing: what it costs to win a customer, what they are worth, and why the two so rarely meet.

Monthly, last Thursday Three-minute read By Alan Edwards

What to expect

The note
One idea, plainly

A short essay from Alan. A single argument from the commercial side of marketing, no hype, no jargon.

The number
One figure that matters

A benchmark, a finding, or a metric worth knowing, with the source named.

From the work
A case or a method

A concrete note from practice: an anonymised pattern or a point of method that proves the idea.

It's written for CFOs, finance directors, marketing leaders, and the investors behind B2B technology and SaaS businesses: the people who hold the marketing budget and the people who answer for it. If that isn't you, it probably won't be useful, and that's fine.
