Episode notes

Most CMOs still allocate a fixed percentage of revenue to brand building, but that math is breaking down in today’s fragmented media landscape. We look at how shifting from a static brand fund to dynamic performance-brand integration changes the ROI conversation with the CFO. Featuring insights on the diminishing returns of broad-reach advertising and the rise of hybrid attribution models that treat awareness as a variable cost rather than a fixed overhead. #CMOStrategy #BrandBudgeting #MarketingROI #PerformanceMarketing #CFOAlignment #MediaMixModeling #Attribution #BrandEquity #IntegratedMarketing #DigitalAdvertising #CustomerAcquisition #RetentionMarketing #MarketingLeadership #BusinessGrowth #FinanceAndMarketing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
