Monitoring and evaluating the marketing mix for each of their targets:
When evaluating marketing performance, companies should measure marketing
outcomes from the consumers points of view, include all marketing activities, measure
across a continuous time period, and meet statistical and technical criteria required of all
measurement systems. To accurately measure the effectiveness of marketing activities,
KPIs must be integrated within the business and management of the company.To ensure
meaningful comparisons among activities, companies should employ a common scale,
and measurement error must be quantified so that managers can react to changes in

using a variety of charting devices (control chart or expense to sales deviation chart) look
at actual to budgeted expenditure.
