What are Marketing Models? 

What are Marketing Models? 

Marketing models are just computer generated estimates of what would happen if we changed this variable or that variable (such as our price or features of our product) or how we promote or any aspect of our marketing mix on what resulting performance will look like. In other words, the marketing model says what if we do this? What will be the outcome? 

The Marketing models attempts to show us what the outcome should look like. For example, what if we increase the price of our product by a dollar? How much will sales go down (we wouldn't expect sales to go up)?

The marketing model can give us some indication or at least an estimate of what that impact would be. Another use for these marketing models is to look at things like market share - rather than just sales volume or revenue.
