Management is your key for companies to succeed. will invest more in management or marketing?

From my humble point of view , i believe i can hit2 birds with1 stone if i invest in marketing ,

Raise the rate of sales, which means more mony to invest in managment .

I don't know nothing about such questions it's not my feild , i just felt it make sense to do that, doesn't it ?

I shall invest my focus , energy & money to bring employee & Employer at harmony of perception to make more profits . Cheers :)

Fail in management leads to fatal consequences, so i invest more in management first then once i became well-established i switch to marketing.

 marketing will be the most important subject comparing to management. Managing is an internal affair and if a company has a fixed policy, and has good set of KPI for each individual position it's easier to achieve.

Marketing on the other hand is a key tool in constant battle to stay ahead with ever increasing competition and shrinking profits.

Good marketing = More customer = improved profits

The issues in GCC compared to UK or US is marketing trends and tactics are outdated and not creative, new technology is not utilized. Specially in automotive dealerships for the money spent on showrooms they have no idea how to attract customers other than using just the  cars for display.

How many of you are attracted to a huge showroom while on the drive or walking-by ?

(It's just sharing the ideas is unwise  as you assist your competitor)

Marketing as a function, at all times will remain a sub-set of MANAGEMENT. The cost of overall management of an enterprise can be smaller than the enterprises marketing budget. But, that does not mean at anytime that you will compromise your investment in the enterprise's management to spend more on marketing!

Afterall even the marketing function will have to be managed. I guess if an enterprise has wisely invested in a string an efficient management, including the team which manages marketing, the decissions on marketing spends will be prudent, compensurate with requirements and will optimize on ROI.
