ReplyDeleteGood association of targets being like goals. Yes, all businesses are out to make money - even the not-for-profit ones!
DeleteIt shows how money is the target. While the "Bullseye would be the best possible result in a marketing situation.

Deletehow to keep money and be able to manage it well. all bussines deal with money which has to do with this 100 bill.- guadalupe
ReplyDeleteYes, you must manage your marketing dollars well for sure. It is sometimes difficult to measure the success of a marketing event.
DeleteSuccess comes from practice. If you are able to find a product and be able to appoint it to an audience, then you will be satisfied with the outcome.

Deletemakes me think that money is the main target
ReplyDeleteYep! Businesses are in business to make money! You can't stay in business without it. It's great to live in the US where we have a profit motive.
DeleteIt shows that your target is money and behind the money is the customer which you have to market too.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that you put money out in front of the customer.....but yes, most people are in business to make some money! :)
