STEP 3 SIZE UP: MEASURE & ADJUST
Once your marketing plan is in place you need to determine which tactics are effective, and which ones aren’t, by measuring and adjusting tho ones you have implemented. In Step 3 you analyze the success of these tactics and make necessary adjustments to drive increased profits and move you closer to your goals.

- It is reminiscent of a typical instruction manual, coil-bound to lay flat for ease of use and sharing.
