As new, profitable innovations are owned by marketing, whilst their financing comes from the ability for the current business to generate profits, there is an intimate link between marketing and innovation.

Stock Prices Rise 21% When Firms Announce Energy Management Projects
When selecting projects under a limited budget, a firm should implement the project that will return the most value. Ultimately, firm value is measured by stock price, which can be impacted when the firm makes a major announcement. This paper shows that announcements of energy management projects correlate with a 21.33% increase in stock price within 150 days of the announcement. This increase is in addition to the risk-adjusted return the firm would normally experience. For example, during a “bull market” a firm’s expected return was 10%. After the announcement, the return would increase by 21.33%, for a net return of 31.33%. These results suggest that investors react positively to energy management projects. This outcome demonstrates one more strategic incentive for firms to implement energy management projects.

The Holy Grail of providing Shareholder Value
In the world of the listed companies, that is those listed on various stock exchanges, the term shareholder value tends to take on disproportionate significance. All eyes are constantly focused on ensuring that shareholders are kept smiling. It doesn’t take much to realise that this means that the company is gutted and robbed of all value to ensure that shareholders receive their return and more. If one doubted the validity of this statement it shouldn’t take long to cast ones eyes around and see how many large companies went belly-up or close to it in this recession. Whole industries took a nose dive.

How Your Brand Values Strengthen Your Business.
How fast do you return a telephone call or an email from a potential lead? I ask myself this every time a lead remarks to me, how quickly I responded.
