With this post, we conclude our three-part series on the marketing budget. This topic merits the detailed coverage. First, we presented 2018 Marketing Budget Trends. Then, we covered 2018 Marketing Budget Strategies. And we conclude with our 2018 Marketing Budget Free Templates.

Before actually setting up a marketing budget, ask yourself several questions. And here is one example of such questions. It’s from the UK’s Marketing Centre:

  1. Do you have a marketing plan?
  2. Are you measuring the right things?
  3. Do you have a way of monitoring and reporting success?
  4. Understand the ROI of your marketing efforts over the last 12 months?
  5. Do you have the requisite tools for marketing success?
  6. Have you set aside budget for legislative changes?
  7. Have you got the right marketing person to make the most of your budget?
