Quit the navel gazing
Article Abstract:
Marketers contribute substantially to the value of shareholder's stocks. Their contributions have also been acknowledged. However, marketers do not bother to understand the plans and directions of the company, unlike the chief executives and finance directors. Consequently, they end up in a league of their own. This, in turn, leads to feelings of isolation from senior management. In this context, the contents of a survey conducted in United States by the Association of National Advertisers are discussed. Marketers are advised to review their role as business advisers.

This conclusion is based on a survey conducted by US magazine Consumer Reports. The implications of the reports for national brands in Australia, and the supermarkets Coles Myer and Woolworths are discussed.
