Turning Research into Action: Practical Ways to Leverage Academic Marketing Insights
September 27, 2024
You’ve learned why only 1% of academic marketing research is directly relevant to businesses and why that small fraction holds immense value. Now, let's explore how to find and apply these golden insights to elevate your marketing strategies.

How to Find the Needle in the Haystack
Identifying relevant academic research doesn’t have to be daunting. Here are practical steps to make the process efficient:
  • Use Curated Platforms: Services like Accurment employ AI to sift through thousands of research papers, presenting you with the most relevant findings tailored to your needs.
  • Follow Thought Leaders: Many academics share insights on platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and industry blogs. Following them provides direct access to cutting-edge research.
  • Attend Industry-Academic Conferences: Events that bring together scholars and practitioners can be valuable for networking and learning about the latest applicable research.

Applying Research: A Case Study
Consider how Procter & Gamble (P&G) translated academic insights into actionable strategies:
  • Shifted Marketing Focus: By targeting all category buyers rather than narrow segments, P&G broadened their market reach.
  • Enhanced Brand Assets: Emphasizing distinctive brand elements improved mental availability among consumers.
  • Adjusted Advertising Approach: Adopting a consistent, year-round advertising presence increased brand visibility.
These evidence-based adjustments led to a 4.5% increase in market share for P&G’s Fairy dishwashing liquid brand in the UK over three years.
