The Net Marketing Contribution How to measure the net marketing contribution There are different strategies for growing the NMC: Increasing the market demand: size of the pie, size of all market Increasing the market share: our slice of the pie, the part actually controlled by one company Improving profitability: to have higher margins Developing the brand portfolio Definitions Net marketing contribution: the gross profit minus the costs of marketing activities. Sales revenues: the amount of money we make by selling the products % Margin: amount of profit we made as a function of the costs. You can express margin as a percentage or as an absolute value. Gross profit: sales volume multiplied by the unit margin. Marketing and Sale expenses: advertisement campaign, cost of collecting data, new product design (but also related to R&D, depends on the company) Net marketing contribution: the gross profit minus the marketing and sales expenses Operating expenses: Operating income: it’s the NMC minus operating expenses. Also known as EBIT (earning before interests and taxes. If you subtract interests and taxes, you have net income NMC=Gross Profit−Marketing∧Salse Expenses=¿ ¿ ( Sales Volumes∗Margin unit) − Marketing∧ Salse Expenses=¿ ¿ ( ( Mkt Demand∗Mkt Share )∗( P−Unit Cost )) −Mktg∧Salse Expenses According to the formula, to influence the Net Marketing Contribution we can: Reduce the costs associated with marketing and sales Improve quality of product, and increase the price to have higher margin or reduce unit cost increase the market share, but on average it implies new investments in marketing Related to all of these metrics, there are some basic marketing metrics:
Focus on Market Market Potential Market Development Index (MDI) Gap Analysis
Focus on Market Share Market Share Analysis Share Development Path Share Development Index (SDI)
Example Market demand: 18 million packs (150 grams each) Market share: 9% in volume and 60% of larger supermarkets Average selling price: €4.20 Unit cost: €2.8 Marketing & Sales expenses: €1 million NMC = 18,000,000 x 0.09 x (4.2 – 2.8) – 1,000,000 = 1,268,000
Focus on Profitability Price Elasticity Pricing Variation
Strategies for growth: Plan 1: Market Development MKTG Investments
Plan 2: Market Share Development Price Discount
Plan 3: Profitability Price Up Unit Cost UP MKTG Investments
Plan 1 Expected market growth: +20% Marketing investments: +30% NMC = (18,000,000 x 1.2) x 0.09 x (4.2 – 2.8) – (1,000,000 x 1.3) = 1,421,600 The NMC increased, so undertake this plan is a good idea Plan 2 Market share development: +20% Price discount: -10% NMC = 18,000,000 x (0.09 x 1.2) x [(4.2 x (1 – 0,1)) – 2. 8] – 1,000,000 = 905,120 This result is lower than the previous result, so the plan is not worth Plan 3 Price up: +20% Unit cost up: +15% Marketing investments: +30% NMC = 18,000,000 x 0.09 x [(4.2 x 1.2) – (2.8 x 1.15)] – (1,000,000 x 1.3) = 1,648,400 This plan has the highest NMC, so the best option is to act on profitability. However, this doesn’t mean that this is always the right decision. Example Market share: 6% N° of container sold annually: 36,000,000 Margin: €0.50 Marketing & Sales expenses: €1,800,000 Market demand: 36,000,000/0,06 = 600,000,000 NMC = 600,000,000 x 0.06 x 0.5 – 1,800,000 = 16,200,000 If market demand development: +1% NMC = (600,000,000 x 1.01) x 0.06 x 0.5 – 1,800,000 = 16,380,000...
