For any business, the most important thing is the earning-to-investment
ratio.
If you put in a unit of money, say 1 million dollars (or for simplicity sake
, let's say 1 dollar), you want to find out the way that can maximize your
earning.
So even in the first example, if you spend 1 millions, direct mailing can
earn you more than tele-marketing. | f********3 发帖数: 210 | |
