ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade Business Related Discussion How much do you spend on marketing?

Thanks Dave and LK.

Wilkie, I understand the point on the business planing. All I am asking is a quick survey in a percentage and where the business is at. I am tring to keep this simple so more may respond. I'm not looking for a dolar amount. I am not asking anyone here to decide for me my budjet. And I'm not asking how much I should charge for an opening.

I sorry if I can't ask a simple question without the "well you should know it if you have a plan".

Yes I have a plan and yes I am tring to adjust it for next year. I am tring to do some research on advertising results. Just cause you write down a plan does not mean it will work. I could write down on paper that I'll spend $100K on marketing and gross $1M. Don't mean it will happen.
